Welcome to Car Hire Cheltenham. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and vehicle rental services. By using our services, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals in Cheltenham are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement provided at the time of booking confirmation or vehicle pick-up. This document outlines the terms, conditions, insurance coverage, fees, and your obligations for the rental period. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will take precedence.
Eligibility Criteria in Cheltenham
Rent a Vehicle in Cheltenham
- To hire a vehicle from our Cheltenham location, drivers must be at least 21 years old, with age limits varying by vehicle type and additional charges for those under 25. A valid full driving licence appropriate for the vehicle category is required, held for a minimum period outlined in the Rental Agreement. Identification and proof of current address must be provided, along with valid payment information and a security deposit. Additional criteria may be specified in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Options
- Reservations can be easily made through our website, via phone, or at our Cheltenham office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. Full payment, along with a security deposit, is generally required upon vehicle pickup. All charges are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept all major credit and debit cards, processed securely through established payment platforms.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection in Cheltenham, it is important to conduct a thorough inspection of the vehicle and report any pre-existing damage immediately. A vehicle condition report will be prepared and signed by both parties. Upon returning the vehicle, it should be in the same condition as when it was collected, aside from normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charges may apply. The fuel level should match the level at collection; refueling fees will be charged for lower levels. Late returns may incur extra charges, so please contact us if you anticipate a delay. You will also be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges incurred during the rental period, along with an administration fee.
Insurance and Liability Overview
- All car rentals include basic third-party insurance. Details regarding coverage and excess amounts are outlined in the Rental Agreement. For those seeking to lower their financial exposure, additional insurance options may be available. You are accountable for any damage or loss up to the excess amount unless you opt for extra coverage. Any damage resulting from negligence or misuse will fall under your responsibility, regardless of insurance status.
6. Modifications and Cancellations
Cancellation and modification terms differ based on the type of booking and the notice given. For precise information, review your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Please be aware that late cancellations or failure to show up may incur additional charges.

Sub-letting or allowing unauthorized drivers is not allowed. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly forbidden.
