Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals in Great Yarmouth come with a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive upon booking confirmation or when collecting your vehicle. This document outlines the specific terms, conditions, insurance information, applicable charges, and your responsibilities for the rental period. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a vehicle requires:
- To hire a vehicle in Great Yarmouth, you must be at least 21 years old. Note that age restrictions can differ based on the vehicle type, with potential extra charges for drivers under 25. A valid driving licence suitable for the vehicle category is required, along with identification and proof of your current address. Ensure you have valid payment information and a security deposit ready. Additional requirements may be outlined in the Rental Agreement.
3. Reservations and Payments
- Reservations can be made via our website, over the 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 at the time of vehicle pickup. All prices are quoted in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment providers.
4. Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection in Great Yarmouth, you are required to conduct a thorough inspection and notify us of any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be completed and both parties will sign it. Please return the vehicle in the same condition as it was collected, accounting for normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and appropriate charges may apply. The vehicle should also be returned with the same fuel level as when it was picked up; refueling charges will be incurred if it is returned with less fuel. Should you anticipate a late return, please contact us as soon as possible, as late fees may apply. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges that arise during your rental, along with an administrative fee.
5. Coverage and Responsibility
- Basic third-party insurance is included with every rental at Car Hire in Great Yarmouth. Full details on coverage and excess amounts can be found in your Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to limit your financial liability. Review these carefully, as you will be liable for damages or losses up to the insurance excess, unless additional coverage applies. Any damage resulting from negligence or misuse will remain your responsibility, regardless of insurance status.
Cancellation and Modifications
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on your booking type and the notice given. For precise information, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or no-shows may incur additional charges, which are detailed in your agreement.
Prohibited Activities
Prohibited Vehicle Use
- Use of the vehicle for illegal activities is strictly prohibited. This includes any form of racing, rallying, or off-roading. Transporting hazardous materials is not allowed. Sub-letting the vehicle or permitting unauthorized drivers is forbidden. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is unacceptable. The vehicle must only be used for its intended purpose, adhering to passenger and weight limits. Travel beyond the pre-approved geographical boundaries requires explicit permission.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and fees.
