Welcome to Car Hire Uttoxeter. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and vehicle rental offerings. By accessing our services, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals in Uttoxeter are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement presented during booking confirmation or at the time of vehicle collection. This agreement outlines the specific terms, conditions, insurance coverage, fees, and your obligations related to the rental. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria for Uttoxeter
Renting a vehicle in Uttoxeter requires:
- To rent a vehicle in Uttoxeter, you must be at least 21 years old, though age limits may vary based on the vehicle type, with extra fees for drivers under 25. A valid driving licence suited to the vehicle category is required, held for the duration stated in the Rental Agreement. You will need to present valid identification and proof of your current address, along with payment details and a security deposit. Additional requirements may be outlined in the Rental Agreement.
3. Reservations and Payments
- You can make bookings directly on our website, via phone, or at our Uttoxeter location. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your reservation. Full payment and a security deposit are generally required at the time of vehicle collection. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT when applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, using trusted payment processors for secure transactions.
4. Picking Up and Dropping Off
- At the time of vehicle collection in Uttoxeter, it is your responsibility to conduct a thorough inspection and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be completed and signed to document the state of the vehicle. Upon return, the vehicle should be in the same condition as when it was collected, with allowances made for normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged accordingly. Please return the vehicle with the same level of fuel as when collected; failure to do so will result in refueling charges. Late returns may lead to additional fees, so communicate with us as soon as possible if you expect to be late. You will also be accountable for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges incurred during your rental, along with an administration fee.
5. Coverage and Responsibility
- Basic third-party insurance is included with every rental in Uttoxeter. You can find comprehensive coverage details and excess amounts outlined in your Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to help lower your financial responsibility. It's advisable to review these options thoroughly. You will be accountable for any damage or loss up to the insurance excess, unless further coverage is purchased. Damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms remains your responsibility, regardless of insurance status.
Cancellation and Modifications
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice provided. For specific terms related to your reservation, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or no-shows can incur additional charges.
7. Restricted Activities

Additionally, the vehicle should not be used for purposes it is not designed for, nor should it exceed passenger or weight limits.

Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and fees.
