Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals in Great Yarmouth are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive at the time of booking confirmation or vehicle pickup. This document outlines the terms, conditions, insurance coverage, fees, and your obligations during the rental period. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Rental Vehicle Requirements
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Great Yarmouth, you must be at least 21 years old, though age limits may differ depending on the vehicle type, with extra fees applicable for drivers under 25. A valid driving licence suitable for the vehicle category is required, along with identification and proof of your current address. Payment details and a security deposit will also need to be provided. Additional stipulations may be outlined in the Rental Agreement.
3. Reservations and Payments
- Reservations can be made via our website, by phone, or in person at our Great Yarmouth office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. Full payment and a security deposit are generally required upon vehicle pick-up. All prices are quoted in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept all major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment providers.
4. Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of collection in Great Yarmouth, it is important to conduct a thorough inspection of the vehicle and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be filled out and signed by both parties. The vehicle must be returned in the same condition as it was collected, accounting for normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged as needed. Ensure the vehicle is returned with the same fuel level as at collection to avoid refueling charges. Late returns may result in additional fees, so please contact us promptly if you expect a delay. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges accrued during the rental period, along with an administrative fee.
5. Insurance and Responsibilities
- Basic third-party insurance is included with every rental in Great Yarmouth. Comprehensive information regarding coverage and excess amounts can be found in the Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to minimize your financial exposure. It is advisable to review these options thoroughly. You will be liable for damages or losses up to the insurance excess unless you have additional coverage. Any damage resulting from negligence or misuse is your responsibility, regardless of insurance.
Cancellation and Modifications
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice given. For precise information, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Late cancellations or failure to show up may incur additional charges.
Prohibited Activities
Prohibited Vehicle Uses
- Use of the vehicle for any unlawful activities is prohibited. This includes racing, rallying, off-road driving, or similar risky behavior. Transporting hazardous materials is also not allowed. Sub-letting the vehicle or permitting unauthorized drivers is forbidden. Operating the vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs is unacceptable. Ensure that the vehicle is used for its intended purpose and within the specified passenger and weight limits. Driving beyond the agreed geographical boundaries without permission is prohibited.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and extra fees.
