Car hire benefits and booking terms

What comes with a Windsor car hire enquiry

Read the booking terms

Free Delivery & Collection

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 Rental Mileage

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.

Entire United Kingdom Coverage

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.

European Cover Option

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.

One Way Vehicle Rental

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.

Insurance Is Included

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.

Company Own Insurance - 10%

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.

Wide Range Available

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

Plan car hire in Windsor

Prepare a brief for the whole day, including the journey back, before comparing car groups.

Collection and return

Leave enough time between your last activity and the requested return. The team must confirm both ends of the hire window.

Everyone behind the wheel

Decide who will handle the outward and homeward journeys. Include anyone sharing the driving in the enquiry so their licence checks can be explained.

Seats and bags

Count overnight luggage separately from day bags. Ask about boot space with all passengers seated, rather than relying on the pictured car.

How the car will be used

Describe any longer journey as well as the Windsor visit. A car chosen for a short outing still needs to suit the rest of your driving.

Windsor car hire journey notes

Routes and access for car hire in Windsor

Use the exact Windsor address and current access instructions. If the journey continues towards Datchet, Old Windsor, Eton Wick, 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 Windsor 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.

A walk along the Long Walk

The Long Walk is a tree-lined avenue running between Windsor Castle and Windsor Great Park, and walkers following it pass through the Deer Park. That part can close for operational reasons, so look at the park's visitor updates before you go and decide where you'll leave the car.

Shops and lunch near the castle

Windsor Royal brings together shops and restaurants close to Windsor Castle, with independent stores among them. It fits well into a relaxed day out, and it's worth sorting out town-centre parking before you set off.

Car hire questions for Windsor

Car Hire questions
Where can the car be handed over?
Suggest a home or work address in or around Windsor and we'll agree the location with you. Standard business handovers aren't made at airports, ports or railway stations.
Can I ask for an automatic?
Make an automatic gearbox part of the initial request if a driver needs one. Ask for it to be confirmed before planning around that preference.
Is the pictured car the one I'll drive?
The photo illustrates a group and a similar model may be supplied. Use the confirmed group and your stated space requirements to judge the hire, rather than expecting the exact photograph.
