Welcome to Car Hire Hackney. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website carhirehackney.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 comprehensive Rental Agreement provided at the time of booking or vehicle pick-up. This document outlines specific terms, conditions, insurance details, fees, and your responsibilities for that rental. In cases where there is a discrepancy between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a Car in Hackney
- To rent a vehicle through Car Hire in Hackney, you must be at least 21 years old, though age restrictions may apply depending on the type of vehicle, with extra fees for drivers under 25. A valid driving licence for the relevant vehicle category is required, along with identification and proof of your current address. Ensure you provide valid payment information and a security deposit. Additional criteria may be specified in your Rental Agreement.
3. Reservations and Payments
- Reservations can be made via our website, over the phone, or directly at our Hackney office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. Full payment and a security deposit are generally required upon vehicle pickup. All charges are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT as applicable. We accept all major credit and debit cards, ensuring secure transactions through trusted payment processors.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection, it is essential to conduct a thorough inspection and promptly report any pre-existing damage. A vehicle condition report will be filled out and signed by both parties. The vehicle must be returned in the same condition as it was received, taking into account normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged accordingly. Additionally, please return the vehicle with the same fuel level as at collection; refueling fees will apply if the vehicle is returned with less fuel. Late returns may incur additional fees, so please contact us as soon as possible if you foresee a delay. You are accountable for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges incurred during the rental period, along with an administration fee.
Insurance and Liability in Hackney
- All car rentals include basic third-party insurance. Details regarding coverage and excess amounts can be found in your Rental Agreement. For those seeking to limit financial liability, additional insurance options may be available. You will be responsible for any damage or loss up to the insurance excess, unless covered by additional options. Negligence or misuse will be your responsibility regardless of insurance coverage.
Cancellation and Modifications
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice period provided. For precise details, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or failure to show may incur additional charges.
Prohibited Activities in Hackney
Prohibited Vehicle Uses in Hackney
- Use of the vehicle for illegal activities is prohibited. This includes racing, rallying, off-roading, or engaging in any hazardous behavior. Transporting dangerous materials is not allowed. Sub-letting to others or permitting unauthorized drivers is against policy. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly forbidden. The vehicle must not be used beyond its intended purpose, such as exceeding passenger or weight limits, or traveling outside the agreed geographical area without prior authorization.
Violation of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and fees.
8. Liability Limitations
To the fullest extent allowed by English and Welsh law, Car Hire Hackney will not be responsible for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business, arising from your use of our services.
