Welcome to Car Hire Melksham. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and vehicle rental offerings. By engaging with our services, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals in Melksham are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive at the time of booking confirmation or when collecting your vehicle. This agreement outlines essential details, including terms, conditions, insurance coverage, charges, and your obligations related to the rental. In cases of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Rent a Vehicle in Melksham
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Melksham, you must be at least 21 years old, with possible age variations based on vehicle type. A valid driving licence appropriate for the vehicle category is required, held for the duration specified in the Rental Agreement. Valid identification and proof of current address must be submitted, along with payment details and a security deposit. Additional requirements outlined in the Rental Agreement should also be met.
Booking and Payment Options
- Reservations can be made via our website, over the phone, or directly at our Melksham office. A deposit may be necessary to secure your booking. Full payment and a security deposit are generally required upon vehicle pickup. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT as applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed through trusted payment platforms.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection, it is imperative to conduct a thorough inspection and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be prepared and signed by both parties for clarity. 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 appropriately. The vehicle should also be returned with the same fuel level as at pickup; refueling fees will apply if the fuel level is lower. Late returns may incur additional charges, so please inform us promptly if a delay is anticipated. During the rental period, you are responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or related charges, along with an administration fee.
5. Coverage and Responsibility
- Basic third-party insurance is included with all vehicle rentals in Melksham. You can find full coverage details and excess amounts in your Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to lessen your financial responsibility. Please review these options carefully, as you will be liable for damage or loss up to the insurance excess, unless covered by added insurance. Damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms will remain your responsibility, regardless of insurance coverage.
Cancellation and Modifications
Cancellation and modification policies are determined by the type of booking and the advance notice provided. For detailed information, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Late cancellations or failure to show up may incur additional charges.
7. Restricted Activities
Prohibited Vehicle Uses
- Use of the vehicle for any illegal activities is strictly prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to, racing, rallying, or off-roading. Transporting hazardous materials or sub-letting the vehicle to others is not allowed. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, exceeding passenger limits, or using the vehicle outside designated geographical boundaries without permission is also against policy.
Breach of terms may lead to rental cancellation and fees.
Limitation of Liability in Melksham
To the fullest extent allowed under English and Welsh law, Car Hire in Melksham will not be responsible for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business, that may arise from your use of our services. Our liability for any claim will not exceed the total amount paid for your rental within the last 12 months. This limitation does not apply to claims related to death, personal injury due to negligence, or fraudulent activity.
Local Legal Framework
These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes will be handled exclusively by the courts of this jurisdiction.
