Car hire benefits and booking terms
Ask for the hire vehicle to be delivered to and collected from an eligible UK mainland home or workplace address.
The address, access, timing and vehicle must be confirmed. Stations, airports and ports are excluded from standard delivery, as are empty properties where the customer is not registered. Failed, changed or specialist arrangements can incur charges.
Unlimited mileage is offered on eligible rentals within a 2,800-mile fair-use allowance per calendar month or 28-day period, or pro rata.
Excess miles are charged per mile plus VAT, and higher-mileage terms for company rentals can be arranged in advance. Unlimited mileage does not apply to courier use, which is prohibited.
Delivery and collection can be checked for eligible local and long-distance vehicle-hire requests across the UK mainland.
The exact postcode, requested vehicle and date must be checked. Islands and non-mainland movements can require separate arrangements.
Eligible vehicles may be taken to approved European destinations when permission, insurance and breakdown cover are arranged before departure.
Charges, deposits, documents, vehicle restrictions and country rules apply. One-way hire is limited to UK mainland postcodes, so European one-way hire is not offered.
Selected vehicles can be requested for collection from a different eligible UK mainland location, avoiding an unnecessary return journey.
The start and finish postcodes, vehicle, route and one-way charge must be confirmed before booking. The service is not available for European one-way journeys.
Comprehensive insurance is normally included for eligible named drivers on vehicles up to and including 7.5 tonnes, unless a different arrangement is requested and approved.
Driver approval, excess and exclusions apply. Goods in transit, overhead-height, tyre, windscreen and flood damage are excluded. 18, 26 and 44 tonne vehicles require customer insurance and applicable operator credentials.
A 10% hire-rate reduction may apply when an acceptable company motor policy provides the required comprehensive cover for the hired vehicle and drivers.
The policy and certificate of insurance must be supplied and approved before delivery, and the customer is responsible for adding the supplied vehicle to the Motor Insurance Database for the hire period. Eligibility depends on the vehicle and proposed use.
Representative car, van, minibus and truck groups can be compared, with vehicle suitability and exact specification confirmed for the booking.
Images and model names describe representative classes. The exact make, model, transmission, body and specification are confirmed for the booking.
Passenger, luggage and journey details
A replacement car is easiest to arrange when you know what your usual car does for you each week.
Give a start date and your best estimate of when your own car will be back. The hire period only becomes fixed once we confirm it, so tell us if that date is still uncertain.
Name whoever normally drives your own car and would need to drive this one, so we can explain the licence information each of them must provide.
Note anything you can't manage without, like an automatic gearbox, plus the everyday load the boot has to take, from school bags to the weekly shop.
Suggest the address that suits your routine for us to agree; airports, ports and railway stations fall outside our standard business handovers.
Bracknell car hire journey notes
Use the exact Bracknell address and current access instructions. If the journey continues towards Warfield, Binfield, Wokingham, treat those as separate destinations and identify the parking place or passenger stop required at each one. That distinction matters for station, family, business and replacement-car journeys from Bracknell and passenger trips using the surrounding road network, because passengers, luggage, transmission preference and parking must be assessed at the real stopping point rather than inferred from a nearby place name.
South Hill Park Arts Centre sits at Ringmead in Bracknell, with theatres, a cinema and creative spaces set in the grounds of an eighteenth-century mansion. It can make a relaxed evening out while you're using a hire car; check the centre's own information on performances and parking in advance.
