conditions. The full details of our rental contract

What is your responsibility?
When you rent a vehicle from SouthWest CAR HIRE, you
are responsible for returning that vehicle to SouthWest
CAR HIRE in the same condition it was in at the start
of the rental, with the exception of normal wear and
tear. To protect you against any unforeseen circumstances,
most SouthWest CAR HIRE rates include Collision Damage
Waiver (CDW) which provides cover for damages to the
SouthWest CAR HIRE vehicle and /or Third Party Property.
In the event of damage however, an Accident Damages
Excess will apply per incident regardless of fault.
This is the amount you contribute towards the loss
of, or damage caused to, the SouthWest CAR HIRE vehicle
and/or Third Party Property. This means that generally
all damage up to the limit of the Accident Damages
Excess is your responsibility. If the damages are
less than the Accident Damages Excess, you are responsible
only for the damages.
Generally an Accident Damages Excess (ADE) is $2200.00
The renter may purchase optional Renter Cover Options
to increase their level of protection. Levels of cover
are available as outlined below and full details will
be provided at the rental counter when the renter
can make their selection (as long as you comply with
the Rental Terms and Conditions).

- Reduces Accident Damages Excess to $330.00

SouthWest CAR HIRE will refuel for you. This refueling
service charge will be added to the cost of the rental.

Credit or charge card charges.
SouthWest CAR HIRE requires a credit or charge card
(Bankcard, Visa MasterCard Amex or Diners) imprint
for each rental with an authorization obtained for
the approx amount of the rental plus a bond. Any charge
for the hire, fuel & damage to the rental vehicle
or for liability to a third part for damage, will
be debited to the credit or charge card. This may
occur after the rental vehicle has been returned and
separately from the debiting of rental charges to
the credit or charge card. Normally, the full amount
of the Accident Damages Excess (ADE) will be debited
to the card and any part of the ADE not required to
pay for the damage, (once it has been assessed) or
meet liability to a third part will be refunded subsequently.
Your Full Responsibility
The customer will be responsible for additional damages.
This includes damages resulting from:
- Damages resulting from water damage;
- Damages resulting from partial or total immersion
in water, where that results from YOUR negligence,
recklessness or carelessness;
- Damages caused deliberately, recklessly, negligently
or carelessly (full repair costs); and
- Damages including the cost of repair to the body
and/or undercarriage of the vehicle caused by objects
overhanging or otherwise obstructing the path of
the vehicle (full repair costs).
When taking the vehicle into the following areas,
CDW is negated. Therefore SouthWest CAR HIRE do not

Australia;
- Any areas or regions outside SouthWest CAR HIRE's

any time informed in writing.
