Cumbernauld Car Rental Agreement
All vehicle rentals at Car Hire in Cumbernauld are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive upon booking confirmation or vehicle collection. This document outlines the terms, conditions, insurance information, applicable charges, and your responsibilities for the rental. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Vehicle Rental Requirements
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Cumbernauld, you must be at least 21 years old, although age restrictions may differ based on the vehicle type. A valid driving licence suitable for the vehicle category is required, along with proof of identity and current address. Payment information and a security deposit must be provided, as well as any specific requirements detailed in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Process
- Reservations can be made via our website, by phone, or directly at our Cumbernauld office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. Full payment and a security deposit are generally required upon vehicle pickup. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT as applicable. We accept all major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment providers.
4. Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- Upon collecting your vehicle in Cumbernauld, 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 at this time. You are expected to return the vehicle in the same condition as it was provided, taking into account normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and may incur additional charges. Please ensure that the vehicle is returned with the same amount of fuel as when it was collected; otherwise, refueling charges will apply. If you foresee a delay in returning the vehicle, contact us as soon as possible to discuss potential late return fees. You will also be liable for any parking fines or traffic violations incurred during the rental, along with an administrative fee.
Insurance and Responsibility
- All rentals come with basic third-party insurance included. For comprehensive coverage information and excess amounts, please refer to the Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to lower your financial liability, so reviewing these is prudent. You will be liable for damage or loss up to the insurance excess, unless additional insurance is obtained. Any damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms remains your responsibility, regardless of insurance coverage.
Cancellations and Modifications
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice given. For precise information, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Late cancellations or failure to appear may incur fees.
