Common use of Late Return Charge Clause in Contracts

Late Return Charge. In addition to charging Additional Rental Days for late return, we reserve the right to make a Late Return Charge to compensate us in part for the costs we incur in finding an alternative vehicle to satisfy our next booking for your vehicle plus our administration costs in contacting you to return the vehicle. All charges are calculated in accordance with our current rates and subject to final calculation at the end of the rental. Fuel is not included in your rental rate. Your vehicle will be provided with a full tank of fuel and you can decide how you wish to pay for the fuel you use during your rental. You have the following options: Fuel Purchase Option (FPO), often referred to as “full to empty”. We charge you at the start of your rental for a full tank of fuel at a price competitive with local fuel stations. You will then not need to refill the tank before returning and will have nothing more to pay us for fuel. This is a good option for high mileage journeys where you are likely to use a full tank. Please note that we do not provide a refund for unused fuel.
