Are you planning a DIY office or home move? Do you need to transport certain items? Or, do you need a truck or lorry for commercial purposes? Whatever your reason, you will be glad to know that T G Commercials Self Drive carries a fleet of commercial vehicles ready to be hired.

But, if this is your first time renting a lorry, you need to focus on the following terms before signing the contract lorry rental service in Yorkshire. Once you sign a contract, you are legally bound and obligated by everything that is specified in the contract.

The terms of the lease

When you sign the lease contract, you are agreeing to the terms of the lease as stated by the rental service provider. Also, you will be assuming the responsibility of maintaining the vehicle in appropriate condition. Moreover, the terms of the lease will mention the number of days or weeks that the vehicle will be leased and used.

Since you are responsible for the vehicle once it is leased to you, you will be held responsible for traffic violations during the entire term of the contract. Make sure to properly read the terms of the lease before signing.

Conditions of payment

This is another important point to focus when you are signing a lorry rental contract. You may have to give a one-time payment for your use of the vehicle if you are only using it for a few hours or a few days. But, if you need the lorry for a few weeks or months, you can opt for paying a security deposit and settle the rest of the price when you hand over the keys. You might even opt to provide a monthly rental fee to the rental service provider. As for T G Commercials Self Drive, you can speak to us to work out the details of the payment conditions.

User obligations

There are going to be a few set of obligations stated by the vehicle rental provider for the user. When you sign the agreement, you are accepting all those obligations and become legally bound to follow them. These obligations might vary and so, you have to go through the contract meticulously. Some of the common obligations are avoiding overloading the vehicle, taking caution during turns and treating the vehicle properly. The user should not drive the vehicle under the influence of alcohol and will have to bear all the additional expenses like bridge tolls, highway tools, fuel, parking fees, traffic violations and so on. It is expected that the user will drive the vehicle carefully and take care of it. Also, when the vehicle is parked, the user must make sure to close all the windows and lock the door properly.

Insurance

It benefits the user if the rented lorry is insured. This would mean that in case of accidents or unavoidable situations, the user would not have to bear the expenses. All of those additional costs are going to be borne by insurance and the user doesn’t have to worry about it. If you choose to rent T G Commercials Self Drive’s lorry, you can be sure that our vehicles are fully insured and they are maintained to the highest specification.
