Kettering Car Hire Terms

Welcome to Car Hire Kettering. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and vehicle rental services. By using our services, you agree to these terms.

Rental Terms

All vehicle rentals are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive upon booking confirmation or at the time of vehicle collection. This agreement outlines important terms, conditions, insurance coverage, associated charges, and your responsibilities for the rental period. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the latter will prevail.

Eligibility Criteria

Renting a vehicle in Kettering: Requirements

• To rent a vehicle in Kettering, you must be at least 21 years old, though age restrictions may differ based on the vehicle type. Drivers under 25 may incur extra fees. A valid driving licence suitable for the vehicle category is required, along with proof of identity and current address. Valid payment details and a security deposit are also necessary, along with any other conditions outlined in the Rental Agreement.

Booking and Payment Details

• Reservations can be made via our website, by telephone, or directly at our Kettering office. A booking deposit may be necessary to confirm your reservation. Full payment, along with a security deposit, is generally required upon vehicle pickup. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where appropriate. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment providers.

4. Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off

• Upon collecting your vehicle in Kettering, it is your responsibility to conduct a thorough inspection and report any pre-existing damage to our staff right away. A vehicle condition report will be created and signed at this time. When returning the vehicle, it should be in the same condition as when it was collected, aside from normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and costs will be applied accordingly. The vehicle must also be returned with the same level of fuel as at pickup; refueling charges will be incurred if it is returned with less fuel. Please be aware that late returns may result in extra fees, and we ask that you contact us promptly if you expect to return the vehicle late. You are responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges that occur during your rental, along with an administrative fee.

Insurance and Liability Details

• All rentals include basic third-party insurance. Full details regarding coverage and excess amounts can be found in the Rental Agreement. You may choose to purchase additional insurance options to lower your financial liability. It is important to review these options thoroughly. You remain liable for damage or loss up to the insurance excess amount, unless further insurance is obtained. Damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms will be your responsibility, regardless of any insurance coverage.

6. Modifications and Cancellations

Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice given. For specific details, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or failure to appear may incur additional charges.

7. Restricted Activities

Prohibited vehicle usage includes:

• The vehicle must not be used for any unlawful activities. This includes racing, rallying, off-road driving, or any other dangerous pursuits. Transporting hazardous materials is prohibited. Sub-letting the vehicle or allowing unauthorized individuals to drive is not allowed. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, exceeding passenger or weight limits, or operating outside the predetermined geographical area without permission is also forbidden.

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

8. Liability Limitations

In accordance with English and Welsh law, Car Hire Kettering will not be responsible for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business, that may arise from your use of our services. Our total liability for any claims will not exceed the rental amount you paid in the last 12 months. This limitation does not apply to liability for death or personal injury resulting from negligence or fraud.

9. Applicable Law in Kettering

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes will be handled exclusively by the courts in this jurisdiction.

10. Modifications to Terms

We may change these Terms at any time. Updates take effect as soon as they are posted on our website. Continued use of our services indicates your acceptance of the revised Terms.
