Welcome to Seaford Car Hire. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website carhireseaford.co.uk and our vehicle rental offerings. By utilizing our services, you agree to the terms outlined herein.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement provided at the time of booking confirmation or vehicle collection. This agreement outlines specific terms, conditions, insurance coverage, fees, and your obligations for the rental. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will take precedence.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a Vehicle in Seaford
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Seaford, drivers must be at least 21 years old, though specific age restrictions may apply depending on the vehicle type. A valid driving licence appropriate for the vehicle category is required, held for the duration specified in the Rental Agreement. Renters must also present valid identification and proof of current address, along with payment details and a security deposit. Any other requirements will be outlined in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Details
- Reservations can be made easily through our website, over the phone, or by visiting our Seaford location. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. Full payment and a security deposit are usually collected at the time of vehicle pickup. All charges are in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept all major credit and debit cards, securely processed by trusted payment providers.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection in Seaford, it is important to conduct a thorough inspection and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be prepared and signed to document the state of the vehicle. Upon return, the vehicle should be in the same condition as it was collected, considering standard wear and tear. Any new damage will be assessed and charged accordingly. Ensure the vehicle is returned with the same fuel level as at pickup; refueling charges will apply if the fuel level is lower. Late returns may incur additional fees, so please contact us if you anticipate a delay. You are responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges incurred during the rental period, along with an administration fee.
Insurance and Liability Policy
- Basic third-party insurance is included with all car rentals. Complete details regarding coverage and excess amounts are outlined in the Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to limit your financial liability. It is advisable to review these options thoroughly. You will be liable for any damage or loss up to the specified insurance excess, unless additional coverage is secured. Damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms remains your responsibility, regardless of insurance.
Cancellation and Modifications
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on your booking type and the notice period provided. For precise information, consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Please be aware that late cancellations or no-shows may incur additional charges.
7. Restricted Activities
Prohibited Vehicle Uses in Seaford
- Usage of the vehicle is restricted to lawful activities only. Engaging in racing, rallying, off-roading, or any other dangerous driving is prohibited. Transporting hazardous materials and sub-letting the vehicle to others or allowing unauthorized drivers is not allowed. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, exceeding passenger or weight limits, and operating outside the agreed geographical boundaries without permission are also violations of these terms.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and fees.
