Welcome to Whitton Car Hire Services. These Terms of Service govern your access to our website and vehicle rental offerings. By using our services, you agree to comply with these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals with Car Hire in Whitton are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive upon booking confirmation or vehicle pickup. This document outlines the specific terms, conditions, insurance provisions, fees, and your responsibilities related to the rental. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the latter will take priority.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a Vehicle in Whitton
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Whitton, drivers must be at least 21 years of age, although specific age restrictions may apply depending on the vehicle type, with potential additional fees for those under 25. A valid driving licence appropriate for the vehicle category is required, held for the duration specified in the Rental Agreement. Renters should also present valid identification, proof of address, and payment information, including a security deposit. Additional criteria may be outlined in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Options
- Reservations can be made via our website, over the phone, or directly at our Whitton location. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking, with complete payment and a security deposit typically required upon vehicle collection. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where relevant. We accept major credit and debit cards through secure payment systems.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection, it is essential to perform a thorough inspection of the vehicle and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be completed and signed to document its state. Upon return, the vehicle should be in the same condition as at collection, accounting for reasonable wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged accordingly. Ensure the vehicle is returned with the same fuel level as received; refueling charges will apply if the fuel level is lower. Late returns may result in additional fees, so please contact us as soon as possible if you foresee a delay. You will be liable for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges incurred during the rental period, plus an administration fee.
Insurance and Liability Coverage
- All rentals include basic third-party insurance, with full details and excess amounts outlined in the Rental Agreement. You may explore additional insurance options to lessen your financial liability. Be aware that you remain accountable for any damage or loss up to the insurance excess, unless further coverage is purchased. Damage arising from negligence or misuse is entirely your responsibility, irrespective of insurance status.
Cancellation and Modifications
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the booking type and the notice period provided. Please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement for precise information. Be aware that late cancellations or no-shows may incur additional charges.
Prohibited Activities
Prohibited Vehicle Uses in Whitton
- The vehicle must not be used for any illegal activities, including racing, off-roading, or other hazardous pursuits. Transporting dangerous materials is prohibited, as is sub-letting or permitting unauthorized drivers. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly forbidden. Adhere to passenger and weight limits, and do not drive outside the agreed geographical boundaries without prior authorization.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and fees.
8. Liability Limitations

Our total liability for any claims is limited to the total amount paid for the rental in the past 12 months.
