Hireage Rate Includes
Deposit
A deposit is required to secure your motorhome booking. The remaining balance is due
in full, 7 days before the commencement of hire.
Rental Duration
When calculating the number of days a vehicle is rented, the day of pick-up is counted as day
one of the rental, regardless of pick-up time. The day of the vehicle's return is counted as the
final day of the rental.
One-way Rentals
One-way rentals are available by prior arrangement. Motorhomes can be dropped off at any New Zealand
airport by prior arrangement and will incur additional drop off charges which will be quoted on booking.
Pick-up / Drop-off
Nelson Office - Pickup & Delivery from and to the Nelson office can be made at any time of the night
and day.
We are closed on Christmas Day except for emergencies. Kahurangi Motorhomes offer a free pick up and delivery to and from the Nelson Airport if required. For Your Protection
New Zealand legislation provides Accident Compensation Insurance for personal injury. We strongly
recommend that all people travelling in New Zealand take out Personal Travel Insurance.
Insurance
Compulsory Insurance per day is added to the daily rate.
All vehicles are insured for the damage to the vehicle or to the property of a Third Party. The hirer is responsible for the first ('the excess') for Motorhomes of the cost of damage to Third Party property or to the rented vehicle, including single vehicle accident, windscreen and tyre damage, overhead and underbody damage, towing and recovery costs, theft, fire, break-in or vandalism. This also includes the cost of the daily rental for the period the vehicle is off fleet for accident repairs (demurrage). The excess applies in respect of each claim. The excess is applicable regardless of who is at fault and must be paid at the time the accident report is completed, not at the completion of the rental. The excess will be refunded if we are successful in recovering the cost of the damages from the Third Party. Please see the 'Exclusions' section below, whereby all insurance cover will be made void. Exclusions Insurance does not cover the following: 1. Any water related damage, which includes but is not limited to:
3. If the terms of the Rental Agreement are breached. The hirer will be responsible for the total cost of any damage. This will also include any damage caused by wilful misconduct (e.g. sitting or standing on the bonnet or roof of the vehicle) and driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. 4. The incorrect use of fuel (fuel being diesel or petrol). The hirer will be responsible for any associated cost. 5. The cost to retrieve or recover a vehicle, which has become bogged. 6. The cost to replace keys, which have become lost, or retrieval of keys, which have been locked in a vehicle. Vehicle Security Deposit
On pick up of the vehicle, a Vehicle Security Deposit is payable.
A Security Deposit is required, and is payable by cash, Traveller's Cheques, or credit cards. Should the Deposit be paid by credit card, authorisation will be gained for the Security Deposit. Due to exchange rate fluctuations there could be some variance in the amount refunded compared to the amount initially charged. The Security Deposit is fully refundable provided the vehicle is returned on time, to the correct location, undamaged, with a clean interior and with full fuel tanks (Fuel being diesel and LPG gas). We reserve the right to retain a soiling fee if the vehicle is not returned with the interior in a clean condition. The toilet and wastewater tank (if applicable) must be emptied prior to the return of the vehicle, or an additional soiling fee will be retained. Failure to return the vehicle with full diesel and/or LPG tanks will result in refill charges. Diesel and LPG gas refill charges will be advised upon return of the vehicle. Infringements
We reserve the right to charge the hirer for any speeding or parking fines, associated administration
costs and/or accidents including third party property damage not reported on return of the vehicle.
