Terms & Conditions

1. These Terms and Conditions act as your rental contract with New Moon Campers LTD.


2. Our tariff includes insurance for one or more hirers. All drivers must be between 25 and 75 years
old and hold a full UK or European driving license for a minimum of two years. The main driver must
provide a security deposit, and the other drivers must provide a clear and traceable deposit, which
can be as little as £1. Any license endorsements or at fault accidents must be declared at the time of
booking.


It is a condition of the insurance that you must present your photocard driving licence, 2 other
forms of ID with your name and address on (which are also in date within 90 days) and a DVLA
‘Check Code’ at the time of collection. You will not be able to hire the vehicle until these conditions
have been met. There is a list of ID examples below.


3. The hirer and all drivers must sign a copy of these terms and conditions prior to any vehicle being
driven.


4. In the unfortunate event that you need to cancel your booking, the following charges will apply: If
you cancel your booking more than 6 weeks prior to your hire, we will refund the full deposit
amount paid on booking. If you cancel within 6 weeks of your hire, we will retain £150 booking fee.
However, in the event of a cancellation we will always try to re-book the vehicle, and in the event
that this is successful we will refund your booking fee. We advise that you take out appropriate
travel insurance to cover the cost of any cancellation.


5. Your camper van can be collected from 12:00pm on the first day of hire, unless another time is
previously agreed. Please allow up to an hour for us to show you how everything works on the van. If
you haven’t driven a van before please ask us to take you for an accompanied drive to make sure
you are comfortable driving the vehicle. Your vehicle will be ready in a clean and roadworthy state.
Any minor scratches or defects will be pointed out on the day.


6. The vehicle must be returned in the same clean, roadworthy state as it was on collection, with the
same amount as fuel as when you collected the van. Any damage or defects must be reported to us.
The vehicle must be returned to us by 12:00pm on the last day of hire, other than by prior
agreement at an extra cost. Failure to return by the agreed time could impact on someone else’s
hire, and as a result could lead to a deduction from your security deposit to compensate the next
hirer.


7. Upon collection a deposit of £500 must be paid to cover the insurance excess, along with the total
hire amount. The deposit will be returned to you in full after the rental provided the campervan is
returned on time, undamaged, fuelled to the same amount as when you left and in a clean
condition. Deductions will be made fairly and honestly for making good any damage to the vehicle or
equipment that has occurred. A cleaning charge of £50 will be taken if the vehicle or equipment and
contents are not returned in a clean state. A late return charge of £150 per day will be taken in
addition to compensation for the next hirer where applicable. Where charges are taken, we will
discuss these with you and provide you with an itemised invoice detailing any charges.

​

the following conditions:

evidence if possible. You must complete a report on return. You must contact us as soon as possible.

hirer, and details of the hirer will be passed to the relevant authority if requested.


9. In the event of a breakdown the hirer is permitted to spend up to £100 on minor essential repairs,
although prior approval should always be sought from the proprietor. Any costs incurred by the hirer
will be reimbursed by New Moon Campers LTD on the production of a valid receipt. Your vehicle is
covered by MarkerStudy Insurance and information is carried on board the vehicle. If you lose a
day’s holiday due to breakdown, we will refund you the cost of a day’s hire, providing the vehicle has
been cared for and driven in accordance with the above.


10. Please respect that our vehicles are all fully non-smoking. A charge will be applied for repairs and
cleaning caused by smoking. Pets are not allowed in the vehicle. Please ensure adequate ventilation
when using cooking or heating equipment to prevent damage to the interior. The hirer is responsible
