Huyton Car Hire Terms

Welcome to Car Hire Huyton. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website carhirehuyton.co.uk and our vehicle rental offerings. By accessing our services, you agree to these terms.

Rental Terms

All vehicle rentals are governed by a Rental Agreement presented at the time of booking confirmation or vehicle collection. This document outlines the specific terms, conditions, insurance information, charges, and your responsibilities related to the rental. In the event of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.

Eligibility Criteria

Renting a vehicle requires:

• To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Huyton, customers must be at least 21 years of age, though restrictions may apply based on the type of vehicle, with extra fees for drivers under 25. A valid full driving licence for the relevant vehicle category is required, along with identification and proof of current address. Valid payment information and a security deposit must also be provided, alongside any other stipulations outlined in the Rental Agreement.

Booking and Payment Process

• Reservations can be made via our website, by telephone, or in person at our Huyton office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. The remaining balance and a security deposit are generally payable at the time of vehicle pickup. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment providers.

Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off

• At the time of vehicle collection, it is your responsibility to conduct a thorough inspection and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be completed and must be signed by both parties. The vehicle should be returned in the same condition as it was collected, with allowances made only for normal wear and tear. Any new damage identified will be evaluated, and charges will be applied as necessary. Ensure that the fuel level upon return matches that at the start of your rental, as refueling fees will be incurred if the level is lower. Late returns may attract additional charges, so please contact us as soon as possible if you anticipate any delays. You will also be liable for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges incurred during your rental period, in addition to an administration fee.

Insurance and Liability Terms

• Basic third-party insurance is included with all car rentals in Huyton. You can find full coverage details and excess amounts outlined in the Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to limit your financial liability, so reviewing these is advisable. You remain liable for damage or loss up to the insurance excess, unless you opt for extra coverage. Damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms remains your responsibility, regardless of insurance.

6. Cancellations and Modifications

Cancellation and amendment 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 may incur additional charges.

7. Restricted Activities

Prohibited Uses of Rental Vehicle

• The vehicle must not be used for any unlawful activities or purposes. This includes racing, rallying, off-roading, or engaging in hazardous driving practices. Transporting dangerous materials is prohibited. Sub-letting the vehicle or permitting unauthorized drivers is not allowed. Operating the vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly forbidden. Use of the vehicle must align with its intended purpose, and passenger and weight limits must not be exceeded. Driving beyond the agreed geographical boundaries without prior permission is also not permitted.

Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and extra fees.

8. Liability Restrictions

To the fullest extent permitted under English and Welsh law, Car Hire Huyton will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business, resulting from your use of our services. Our total liability for any claims will not exceed the total rental amount paid in the last 12 months. This limitation does not apply to liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence or fraud.

Huyton Jurisdiction Guidelines

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Disputes will fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of the English and Welsh courts.

10. Updates to Terms
