A - Yes you can add one other driver at no extra charge, however we will need to see them at the time of the hire along with all the relevent paperwork.

 

Q - What about deposits and insurance excess?

A - There is NO deposit held by us at the time of hire, we use a pre authorisation style policy where we check that in the event of any damage occuring to the vehicle that subsequent funds are available within your account. In the event of damage, the hirer will be called upon to contribute the first £1000 towards the repairs. Excess protection is an optional extra that allows the hirer to reduce the excess reasonability to £250. The Insurance reduction does NOT cover damage to Wing Mirrors, tyres, above cab height or damage sustained through contact with stationery objects for example, contact with a parked car or wall/gate post. When multiple areas of damage occur within a hire period, each area is classed as a seperate incident and the excess cover will be charged per accident zone. Cross fuel or misuse of the vehicle will be charged at the full repair or loss of vehicle cost.

 

Q - How much is the Excess Protection?

A - The optional excess reduction is as follows, 24 hr - £12 inc vat, weekend - £18 inc vat and weekly - £30 inc vat, made payable at the time of hire.

 

Q - What paperwork do i need bring with me?

A - We will need to see your driving license, National Insurance number or the DRIVING LICENCE SHARE CODE along with proof of address.

 

Q - What about fuel?

A - We run all our vehicles from empty to empty. So we ask that you only fill up to the amount of fuel required by yourself for the period of hire.

 

Q - What happens if i want to cancel my booking or terminate the hire contract early?

A - Cancellation over 48 hrs before the start of the hire period will incur a 50 % cancellation fee. If the Hire contract is cancelled less than 48 hrs before the start period, the customer will forfeit the full cost of the hire period. 

 

If you are within the Agreed Hire period and wish to return the vehicle early then there will be an early termination fee that will be the total hire charge for the period.

 

Central Hire reserves the right to calculate a fee on a case-by-case basis by taking into consideration the length of the contract. All terminations of contracts will need to be in written form, either by letter or email.
