INSURANCE & COLLISION DAMAGE WAIVER
All Vehicles are fully insured, but subject to an excess or collision damage liability similar to your own personal insurance. We offer a range of packages to reduce the excess on vehicle insurance starting from a low $5 per day. This excess or collision damage waiver is completely optional for drivers over 25 years of age. For a minimal daily amount, you may wish to reduce the excess that would be payable in the unfortunate situation where the vehicle is damaged in an accident with another registered vehicle. Our vehicles carry a standard excess of $2500. An opportunity will be made available during the booking process to choose one of these reduction packages. If you are still undecided on whether you wish to reduce the excess, you may choose to select one of these options when you collect the vehicle. One of our reception staff will be happy to go through the options with you. Hirers are reminded that there is no cover unless the vehicle is driven on sealed maintained roads (No designated remote areas, 4WD access areas or overnight parking above the snowline). Any single vehicle damage including overhead, underbody, interior, windscreen, tyre or mechanical, howsoever caused is always at the hirers risk.
