1. COLLECTION

Vehicle handover will take approx. 2-3 hours, depending on the questions asked and client feedback. This involves a thorough explanation and demonstration of the vehicle and its equipment. Kindly note that signing the vehicle condition report is an acceptance of the condition of the vehicle. THRSA must be notified within 24 hours, should the renter experience any glitches, problems, malfunctions or discomfort. No consideration will be given to claims against such experiences, and no compensation or liability for lost time will be given, if issues are only reported on return of the vehicle. Rental days lost due to the renter collecting the vehicle after the agreed date of rental, will not be refunded.

2. RETURN

When returning the vehicle, please set aside an hour for the vehicle and equipment to be checked. Although we request that the vehicle be returned with a full fuel tank, as a courtesy to the next renter our representatives will take the vehicle to our refuelling station to ensure that the vehicle is full. Should top-ups be required, the fuel amount will be deducted from the renter’s nominated credit card. Vehicles must be returned clean, in order for the vehicle check in to be done. Vehicles returned dirty will be charged a cleaning fee of R/N$1,000.00. Toilet cassette in the motorhomes must be emptied and cleaned or a cleaning fee of R/N$ 1,000-00 will be charged. Any vehicles returned later than the agreed return date, or outside of normal office hours (without prior arrangement), will be charged a full day’s rental. Rental days lost due to the renter returing the vehicle before the agreed date of return, will not be refunded.

5. eTOLL POLICY

For all rentals despatched from, departing and/or returning to our Johannesburg depot will be charged a fee of R500 per rental agreement.

These tags are debited with gantry levies in Gauteng, and also open gates on debit at toll gates on the major roads in South Africa that bear the eToll logo.

6. LIABILITY OPTIONS

THRSA offers 2 liability cover options, namely, Standard Cover & Super Cover. This cover is NOT a personal liability cover, but cover for damage to our vehicles and/or 3rd party property. Details below:

Standard Cover

This cover carries an excess of on Request which is applicable in the event of any accident or damage to either our vehicle or third party property. This excess of on Request is pre-authorised on the renter’s Visa or MasterCard credit card at the time of collection. Funds will only be deducted from this amount, should the renter return the vehicle in a damaged condition or for any 3rd party damage. If no claims exist, this excess is released within 21-30 working days from date of return, by the renter’s financial
institution. Standard Cover does not include repair to or replacement of tyres and windscreens.

Super Cover

A daily rate is charged per day as per your quotation/rental agreement detailed as SUP. This cover is a NO EXCESS cover and is applicable to the vehicle and third party property damage and includes the cost of replacing or repairing of windscreens and tyres (in South Africa, Lesotho and Swaziland), radio theft and recovery costs. Super cover does not include repair to or replacement of tyres and windscreens for vehicles travelling to or through Namibia. A security deposit of R/N$ 5,000.00 is pre-authorised on the
renter’s Visa or MasterCard credit card at the time of collection to ensure that the vehicle is returned to the agreed location, on the agreed date, in a clean condition and no items are lost or damaged. This security deposit is fully refunded within 21-30 working days, after date of return, should all the terms and conditions be adhered to.

7. CLAIMS HANDLING FEE

A handling fee of on Request is charged on all damage/accident claims irrespective of the liability cover option taken.

8. ACCIDENTS

Single vehicle accidents are included in all liability cover options, except in the case of roll-overs. In case of damage to the vehicle rented, the following will apply:

The incident:

All accidents must be reported to THRSA, and by law, to the Local Police within 24 hours. An AR (accident report) number from the police must be obtained at the time of reporting the incident. This proves that the accident has been registered. Failing to report accidents may void all liability cover and the renter becomes fully liable for all costs. We advise that you take as many photographs of the accident scene and also obtain the third party details. These can be recorded on the reverse side of the rental pack envelope
supplied to you on collection. We also suggest you take a photograph of the driver’s licences of the persons involved. An accident report which is provided in the RENTAL PACK, must also be completed. These documents and records of evidence will be submitted to THRSA in order to process the incident.

The vehicle:

The renter is responsible for the recovery of the damaged vehicle to the original rental branch depending on the liability cover option taken. A replacement vehicle will only be dispatched once payment of all damages / recovery costs to the first vehicle is made.
THRSA reserves the right to withhold a replacement vehicle; this does not entitle the client to any claims against THRSA.
If the renter requires a replacement vehicle to be delivered, charges will be levied according to the liability cover option taken on the rental.
If the renter is not able to take a replacement vehicle, no refunds for early termination of the contract will be made.
Should the renter continue with a replacement vehicle, this vehicle will be noted under the current rental contract and standard cover will be applicable. This includes a new on Request pre-authorisation on the nominated credit card. Super Cover is not available on a replacement vehicle.
Should the applicable excess be charged, and should THRSA be successful in the reimbursement of that amount by the 3rd party, this amount will be refunded to the renter. This process could take up to three years.
