Sidcup Car Hire Agreement
All vehicle rentals are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement presented at the time of booking confirmation or vehicle pickup. This agreement outlines the specific terms, conditions, insurance coverage, fees, and your obligations related to the rental. In the event of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will take priority.
Eligibility Criteria for Sidcup
Renting a Vehicle in Sidcup
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Sidcup, you must be at least 21 years old, although age restrictions may differ based on the vehicle type. Drivers under 25 may incur additional charges. A valid driving licence suitable for the vehicle category is required, along with valid identification and proof of your current address.

The total payment and a security deposit are usually required upon collecting the vehicle. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, with transactions processed through trusted payment providers.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- Upon collecting your vehicle from our Sidcup location, it is essential to conduct a thorough examination and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be generated and must be signed by both parties. When 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 applied as necessary. The vehicle must be returned with the same fuel level as at the start of the rental; refueling fees will be incurred if it is returned with less fuel. Late returns may result in additional charges, and we ask that you contact us promptly if you foresee any delays. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges that arise during your rental period, along with an administration fee.
Insurance and Liability in Sidcup
- Basic third-party insurance is included with every vehicle rental in Sidcup. Detailed coverage information and excess amounts are outlined in the Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to limit your financial liability. It is advisable to review these options thoroughly. You will be accountable for any damage or loss up to the insurance excess amount, unless you opt for added insurance. Damage resulting from negligence or misuse remains your responsibility, regardless of existing insurance coverage.
