regardless of pick-up time.The day of the vehicle's return is
counted as the final day of the rental.
When a rental moves from one rate season into the next, the
calculation is based on both rates.

subject to change during peak periods.
· Special conditions are available for rentals of more than
90 days.Details available on application.
· Late pick up or early return of vehicle does not entitle the

the daily rate.

MULTIPLE
RENTALS
Should a hirer have more than one rental (multiple
rentals) then these rentals can be combined to qualify the hirer
for our long term rate. Motorhome and car rentals in Australia,
New Zealand and Southern Africa, for both Britz and Maui, can
be combined to qualify if travel is within a 3 month period.
e.g. One 14 day rental plus one 7 day rental qualifies for the
21 day rate.
For
pick-ups and drop-offs on the same day, the daily rental charge
for the last day of the 1st rental will be charged, and the
daily charge for first day of the subsequent rental will not
be charged. This will also apply to the Excess Reduction charge.
The
One Way Fee (if applicable) and charges for additional hire
equipment (tables, chairs, baby seats) and additional extras
(PGO, etc) will be charged per vehicle rented.
CHANGE
OF DROP OFF DESTINATION

after the rental has commenced, they must first obtain authorisation
from the Reservations Centre in Auckland. Subject to the change
being approved, an additional charge of up to
$446 may apply.
RENTAL
EXTENSION
If the hirer wishes to extend the rental whilst
on hire, they must first obtain authorisation from the Reservations
Centre in Auckland. This is subject to availability. The extra
cost of an extended rental must be paid by credit card over
the telephone on confirmation of the rental extension. Failure
to obtain authorisation will result in a fee of
$134 in addition to the daily rate.

FOR
YOUR PROTECTION
Personal Injury is covered through the Accident
Compensation Commission however Maui strongly recommends that
all clients take out Personal Injury Travel Insurance.
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
$4,464 ('the excess") 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. 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, not rental.
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 note that Third Party Claims can take
months to resolve.

whereby all Excess Reduction cover will be made void.
