Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals in Wednesbury are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive upon booking confirmation or vehicle collection. This document outlines specific terms, conditions, insurance information, and your obligations for the rental. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Requirements for Vehicle Rental
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Wednesbury, drivers must be at least 21 years old, although age restrictions may apply depending on the vehicle type, with potential extra charges for those under 25. A valid full driving licence suitable for the vehicle category, held for the duration specified in the Rental Agreement, is required. Renters must present valid identification and proof of current address, along with acceptable payment information and a security deposit. Additional conditions may be outlined in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Details
- Reservations can be made via our website, over the phone, or directly at our Wednesbury office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. Full payment, along with a security deposit, is usually required at the time of vehicle pickup. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include applicable VAT. We accept major credit and debit cards, with secure processing through well-known payment providers.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection in Wednesbury, it is important to conduct a thorough inspection and report any pre-existing damage right away. A vehicle condition report will be documented and signed by both parties. Ensure the vehicle is returned in the same state as it was collected, taking into account standard wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and associated costs will be charged. The vehicle should be returned with the same fuel level as when picked up; refueling charges will apply for lower fuel levels. If you anticipate returning the vehicle late, please inform us as soon as possible, as late returns may incur extra fees. You will be held accountable for any parking tickets, traffic violations, or charges that arise during the rental period, along with an administration fee.
Insurance and Liability Terms
- All rentals include basic third-party insurance. You will find comprehensive coverage details and excess amounts outlined in the Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be offered to limit your financial liability. It is advisable to review these options closely. You remain liable for any damage or loss up to the insurance excess amount unless you opt for additional coverage. Any damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms will be your responsibility, regardless of insurance.
Cancellation and Modifications
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice given. For precise information, consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Please be aware that late cancellations or failure to show up may incur additional charges.
7. Restricted Activities
Prohibited Uses of Rental Vehicle
- The vehicle must not be used for any unlawful activities. This includes racing, off-roading, or any dangerous driving practices. 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 must only be used for its intended purposes and within specified passenger and weight limits. Travel beyond agreed geographical boundaries requires prior consent.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental termination and fees.
8. Liability Restrictions

Our total liability for any claim is limited to 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.
