Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement that you will receive upon booking confirmation or at the time of vehicle collection. This document outlines the specific terms, conditions, insurance information, associated charges, and your obligations related to the rental. In the event of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a vehicle in Nottingham requires:
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Nottingham, drivers must be at least 21 years old, though specific vehicle categories may have different age requirements and potential surcharges for those under 25. A valid full driving licence is necessary, along with identification and proof of current address. Payment information and a security deposit are also required, as well as any additional criteria outlined in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Details
- Reservations can be made via our website, by telephone, or in person at our Nottingham office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. The total payment, along with a security deposit, is usually collected at the time of vehicle pickup. Prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment providers.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection in Nottingham, it is important 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 appropriate charges applied. Please return the vehicle with the same fuel level as received; refueling fees will be incurred if the level is lower. Late returns may result in additional fees, so please contact us right away if you foresee a delay. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges that arise during the rental period, along with an administration fee.
Insurance and Liability Information
- All rental vehicles include basic third-party insurance, with full coverage details and excess amounts specified in your Rental Agreement. You may have the option to purchase additional insurance to lower your financial liability. It is advisable to review these options thoroughly. You will be liable for damage or loss up to the insurance excess, except when additional coverage applies. Any damage resulting from negligence or misuse remains your responsibility, regardless of insurance.
Cancellation and Modifications
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and how much notice is provided. For precise details, consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or no-shows may incur charges.
Prohibited Activities
Prohibited Vehicle Uses
- The vehicle must not be used for any illegal activities, including racing, rallying, or off-roading. Transporting hazardous materials is prohibited. Sub-letting the vehicle or permitting unauthorized drivers is not allowed. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly forbidden. Additionally, do not exceed passenger or weight limits, and avoid driving outside designated geographical areas without prior authorization.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and fees.

Our maximum liability for any claim is limited to the rental amount paid in the previous 12 months.
