Welcome to Car Hire Waterlooville. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and vehicle rental offerings. By utilizing our services, you agree to comply with these terms.
Rental Terms
All car rentals in Waterlooville are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive upon booking confirmation or vehicle pickup. This document outlines the specific terms, conditions, insurance information, fees, and your obligations for the rental period. In cases of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a Vehicle with Us
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Waterlooville, you must be at least 21 years old, though age restrictions may vary depending on the vehicle type. A valid driving licence appropriate for the vehicle category is required, along with proof of identity and current address. Ensure you provide valid payment details and a security deposit, and meet any additional conditions outlined in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Options
- Reservations for car hire can be made via our website, over the phone, or in person at our Waterlooville office. A booking deposit may be necessary to confirm your rental. Full payment and a security deposit are generally required upon vehicle pickup. All prices are quoted in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept all major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment systems.
Vehicle Pick-Up and Drop-Off
- Upon collecting your vehicle in Waterlooville, please conduct a thorough inspection and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be created and signed to document the state of the vehicle at the time of collection. When returning the vehicle, it must be in the same condition as when received, accounting for normal wear and tear only. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged accordingly. Ensure the fuel level matches what was provided at the start of your rental; refueling charges will apply for any discrepancies. If you anticipate returning the vehicle late, please contact us as soon as possible, as late returns may incur additional fees. You will also be liable for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges incurred during your rental, along with a processing fee.
Insurance and Liability in Waterlooville
- Basic third-party insurance is included with all car rentals in Waterlooville. Details regarding coverage and excess amounts can be found in the Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to minimize your financial liability. Review these options thoroughly, as you remain responsible for any damage or loss up to the insurance excess unless otherwise covered. Damage resulting from negligence or misuse is your liability, irrespective of insurance coverage.
Cancellation Policies
Cancellation and amendment policies differ depending on the specific booking type and the notice period provided. For precise information, please check your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Please be aware that late cancellations or no-shows may incur additional charges.
Prohibited Activities in Waterlooville

The vehicle cannot be sublet or driven by unauthorized persons. Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol is strictly forbidden. Ensure that you do not exceed the designated passenger or weight limits. Additionally, driving outside the agreed geographical area requires prior approval.
