Welcome to Battersea Car Hire Services. Our Terms of Service outline the guidelines for using our website carhirebattersea.co.uk and our vehicle rental offerings. By accessing our services, you agree to these terms.
Battersea Car Hire Agreement
All vehicle rentals are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement provided at the time of booking confirmation or when the vehicle is collected. This document outlines specific terms, conditions, insurance information, charges, and your obligations related to the rental. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will take precedence.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a Vehicle in Battersea
- To hire a vehicle from our Battersea location, drivers must be at least 21 years old. Age restrictions may apply depending on the vehicle type, with additional fees for those under 25. A valid full driving licence relevant to the vehicle category is required, along with valid identification and proof of current address. Payment details and a security deposit must also be provided. Additional criteria may be outlined in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Options
- Reservations can be made through our website, by phone, or directly at our Battersea location. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. Full payment, along with a security deposit, is usually required upon vehicle pick-up. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment partners.
4. Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection, it is important to conduct a thorough inspection and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be generated and signed by both parties. Return the vehicle in the same condition as it was collected, accounting for normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged as necessary. Ensure the vehicle is returned with the same fuel level as at pickup; refueling charges will apply if the fuel level is lower. Late returns may incur additional fees, and you should contact us promptly if a late return is anticipated. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges incurred during your rental period, along with an administrative fee.
5. Liability and Coverage
- All car rentals in Battersea come with basic third-party insurance included. Detailed coverage information and excess amounts are outlined in your Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to help reduce your financial responsibility. It is beneficial to review these options thoroughly. You will be liable for any damage or loss up to the excess amount unless additional insurance is purchased. Any damage resulting from negligence or misuse remains your responsibility, regardless of insurance.
6. Modifications and Cancellations
Cancellation and modification policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice period provided. For precise information, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or failure to show up may incur additional charges.
7. Usage Restrictions
Prohibited Uses of Vehicle
- Prohibited activities include using the vehicle for illegal purposes or engaging in racing, rallying, off-roading, or other dangerous maneuvers. Transporting hazardous materials is strictly forbidden. Sub-letting the vehicle or permitting unauthorized drivers is not allowed. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is impermissible. Vehicles must not be used beyond their intended purposes or exceed passenger and weight limits. Travel outside the specified geographical boundaries requires prior authorization.
Breach of terms may lead to rental cancellation and fees.
Liability Limitations
To the fullest extent allowed by English and Welsh law, Car Hire Battersea will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business, related to your use of our services. Our total liability for any claims is limited to the rental amount you paid in the previous 12 months. This limitation does not affect our responsibility for death or personal injury resulting from negligence or fraud.
9. Local Regulations
These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes will be addressed exclusively by the courts in this jurisdiction.
10. Updates to Terms
We reserve the right to amend these Terms at any time. Changes take effect immediately upon being published on our website. Continued use of our services indicates your acceptance of the updated Terms.
