Welcome to Car Hire Oldbury. These Terms of Service outline your use of our website and vehicle rental offerings. By accessing our services, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals at Car Hire Oldbury are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive upon booking confirmation or at the time of vehicle collection. This document outlines important terms, conditions, insurance information, associated charges, and your responsibilities during the rental period. In cases of discrepancy between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a vehicle requires:
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Oldbury, you must be a minimum of 21 years old, though age restrictions may differ based on the vehicle type, with potential extra fees for drivers under 25. You need a valid driving licence suitable for the vehicle category, held for the time outlined in the Rental Agreement. Additionally, present valid identification and proof of your current address. Valid payment information and a security deposit are required, along with any other criteria mentioned in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Options
- Reservations can be made via our website, by phone, or directly at our Oldbury office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. Full payment and a security deposit are generally required at the time of vehicle pickup. All 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 Oldbury, you are required to conduct a thorough inspection and promptly report any pre-existing damage. A vehicle condition report will be completed and signed by both parties. Upon returning the vehicle, it 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. It is important to return the vehicle with the same fuel level as at the start of your rental, as refueling charges will apply if the fuel level is lower. Late returns may incur additional fees, so please notify us in advance if you foresee any delays. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges that arise during your rental, along with an administration fee.
Insurance and Liability Terms
- All rentals include basic third-party insurance. You can find full coverage information and excess amounts outlined in the Rental Agreement. Options for additional insurance may be available to limit your financial liability, so reviewing these alternatives is wise. You remain liable for any damage or loss up to the excess amount, except where additional insurance applies. Any damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms will be your responsibility, irrespective of insurance coverage.
6. Modifications and Cancellations
Cancellation and amendment policies differ depending on your booking type and the notice provided. For precise details, consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or failure to show may incur additional charges.
7. Restricted Activities
Prohibited Uses of Rental Vehicle
- The vehicle must not be used for any illegal activities, including racing, rallying, or off-roading. Transporting hazardous materials is prohibited, as is sub-letting or allowing unauthorized individuals to drive. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is unacceptable. Ensure you do not exceed passenger or weight limits, and do not operate the vehicle outside the specified geographical boundaries without prior approval.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and extra fees.
Liability Restrictions
To the fullest extent allowed by English and Welsh law, Car Hire Oldbury is not responsible for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business, resulting from your use of our services. Our liability for any claims is limited to the amount paid for the rental in the previous 12 months.

9. Applicable Law
