Kenhire's flexibility means your rental can be configured to suit your needs.
Our standard rates include insurance cover for one driver only.
Additional drivers can be added for a one-off charge, provided that we see their licence & DVLA check code and they meet our insurance requirements.
Additional Drivers: £10.00 + vat, per driver, per hire.

If you want an early start or late finish, you can have your hire vehicle for an extra 12 hours overnight for as little as £10.00 + vat.
Ask about this option when you book, or if you are booking online make sure you enter a start time of 5.00pm and a return time of 8.00am to get the correct price.

All the hire prices quoted in this website include fully comprehensive insurance and Collision Damage Waiver.
AGE LIMITS
Kenhire's insurance covers drivers between the ages of 25 and 69, with 2 years driving experience.
For drivers aged 21-24 and 70-74 (subject to our insurer's approval) the insurance excess and CDW rates are increased.
DAMAGE & INSURANCE EXCESS
Basic prices include fully comprehensive insurance cover, but the excess remains the responsibility of the hirer.
If the Collision Damage Waiver option is taken, the hirer's liability is reduced to £150.
The hirer is responsible for the first £150 of damage in all circumstances, and will also be charged in full for damage to tyres, interior or roof and any damage caused by using the wrong fuel.
LICENCES & ENDORSEMENTS
Only drivers who have produced their licence and have been approved by Kenhire will be insured to drive the hire vehicle.
Licences with certain endorsements can be accepted, but only when specifically authorised by our insurance company. Please check with us at the time of booking if the driver has any endorsements (points), as increased CDW rates and a higher policy excess may be applied.
Remember that drivers will need to supply a DVLA check code, so that we can check the licence details online.
More details about our insurance cover can be found on the FAQs - Insurance page.
HIRER'S OWN INSURANCE
You may provide fully comprehensive insurance cover on any hire vehicle, although this feature is usually only available to companies with fleet insurance or private individuals whose own vehicle is off the road.
Proof of cover must be given and the hirer will be responsible for any excess that applies.
Price reductions will apply when using your own insurance, but you will need to talk to us about this, as the online prices and booking facility can only deal with 'insured' hires.
Flexible monthly rentals and full maintenance contract hires are available and can be tailored to your specific needs.
Choose a vehicle from our rental fleet or select any brand new model and we will provide a quotation, based on the length of hire and estimated mileage.

All Kenhire's vehicles start with a full tank of fuel, so your first stop doesn't have to be the service station.
