Oldham Car Hire 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 pickup. This agreement outlines important terms, conditions, insurance coverage, fees, and your responsibilities for the rental period. In the event of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.

Eligibility Criteria for Oldham

Renting a vehicle in Oldham:

• To hire a vehicle from Car Hire in Oldham, you must be at least 21 years old, though age restrictions can differ based on the vehicle type. Drivers under 25 may incur extra charges. A valid driving licence suited to the vehicle category is required, along with valid identification and proof of your current address. You will also need to provide valid payment information and a security deposit, as well as meet any further criteria outlined in the Rental Agreement.

Booking and Payments in Oldham

• Reservations can be completed via our website, by phone, or directly at our Oldham office. A booking deposit may be necessary to confirm your reservation. The total payment and a security deposit are usually required at the time of vehicle pickup. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where relevant. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment providers.

Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off

• Upon collecting your vehicle, it is important to conduct a thorough inspection and report any pre-existing damage right away. We will complete and sign a vehicle condition report together. When returning the vehicle, please ensure it is in the same condition as when it was picked up, accounting for normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged accordingly. The vehicle should also be returned with the same fuel level as at collection; otherwise, refueling charges will apply. Late returns may incur extra fees, so please contact us if you anticipate a delay. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges incurred during your rental, along with an administration fee.

Insurance and Liability Overview

• All rentals come with basic third-party insurance. You can find comprehensive coverage details and excess amounts outlined in the Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be offered to lower your financial liability. It is wise to review these options thoroughly. You will be liable for any damage or loss up to the insurance excess amount unless you have opted for extra insurance. Any damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms remains your responsibility, regardless of insurance coverage.

6. Modifications and Cancellations

Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and how much notice is provided. For precise details, consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Please 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, off-roading, or engaging in any dangerous actions. Transporting hazardous materials is prohibited. Sub-letting the vehicle or permitting unauthorized drivers is not allowed. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly forbidden. The vehicle should only be used as intended, adhering to all passenger and weight limits. Travel beyond designated geographical boundaries requires prior approval.

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

8. Liability Restrictions

To the fullest extent allowed under English and Welsh law, Car Hire Oldham is not responsible for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business, related to your use of our services. Our liability for any claims will not exceed the rental amount you paid in the past 12 months. This limitation does not apply to liability for death or personal injury resulting from negligence or fraud.
