Car hire benefits and booking terms

What comes with a Alton car hire enquiry

The booking team confirms the important details up front, including availability, driver rules, mileage, delivery and any specialist vehicle requirements.

Read the booking terms

Free Delivery + Collection

Collection and delivery are free at a qualifying Alton home or workplace once confirmed.

Approval depends on the exact address, stopping space, time and vehicle. Stations, airports and ports are outside standard delivery and collection, as is an empty property where the customer is not registered. Failed, amended or specialist visits may cost extra.

Unlimited Rental Mileage

Mileage is unlimited for an accepted car hire booking while the agreed fair-use terms are met.

Fair-use terms generally cap company rentals at 2,800 miles for 28 days, with a pro rata figure for other durations. Courier use is prohibited. Other delivery-service or additional-mileage work must be agreed in writing; excess charges can apply.

UK Mainland Vehicle Coverage

A vehicle can be delivered and collected across the UK mainland when the journey details and supply are confirmed.

Coverage is checked against the full addresses, hire dates, requested group and purpose. Separate arrangements may be needed for islands or any movement beyond the UK mainland.

European Cover

A qualifying vehicle can travel to approved European destinations after consent, insurance and breakdown cover are arranged.

European travel needs the approved countries, paperwork, costs, deposit and vehicle conditions recorded in advance. A European one-way rental is not available because one-way hire is restricted to UK mainland postcodes.

One-Way Vehicle Hire

Selected hires can use separate eligible UK mainland start and finish postcodes.

A one-way booking is conditional on the two mainland addresses, route, vehicle and charge being confirmed. It cannot be used for a European one-way rental.

Comprehensive Insurance Included

Comprehensive insurance is normally included for eligible named drivers on vehicles up to and including 7.5 tonnes.

Excess and driver approval apply. Goods in transit, overhead-height damage, tyre damage, windscreen damage and flood damage are excluded; check the full insurance terms before hire.

Save 10% With Approved Company Own Insurance

Approved comprehensive company insurance gives eligible bookings a 10% hire-rate reduction.

Prior approval of the comprehensive company cover and certificate is required. The customer must place the hired vehicle on the Motor Insurance Database for every day of the booking.

A Wide Range Available

The Alton page presents a representative car hire range for different practical requirements.

The pictured vehicles and named models represent groups and do not confirm the supplied vehicle. Check the actual make, model, body, gearbox, equipment and specification for the booking.

Car hire questions for Alton

Car Hire booking and policy questions
What size vehicle can I drive?
That depends on the licence categories shown on the back of your driving licence and the vehicle's weight or seating capacity. Standard UK category B entitlement usually covers vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes and up to 9 seats, but larger minibuses, trucks and specialist vehicles may need extra entitlement.
Can a hire car be delivered to a Alton address?
Use the delivery conditions above as the starting point. Give the exact address, preferred time and somewhere suitable for the handover; the adviser will confirm whether the requested car can use that arrangement.
How does mileage work for car hire from Alton?
The mileage card above gives the current fair-use baseline. Share the complete route and estimated distance, particularly for an extended trip, so any written variation or excess-mile exposure is clear before acceptance.
What insurance comes with the hire car?
The insurance summary above does not replace a driver check. Supply every named driver's licence history and intended use, then read the confirmed excess and exclusions before accepting the car.
