2010
- 2011 Apollo Flex Rates
Valid from
01 January 2010 - 31 March 2011
Flex
Flex Rates allows us to offer flexible pricing, which
gives you the opportunity to secure the best possible
rental rate. The Flex Rates are based on a very simple
system of supply and demand. So when there are a
large number of vehicles available for hire from
a particular branch then the rental rate is lower.
This way you can benefit from the lower rates offered.
Generally, this means that the earlier you book the
cheaper the rate! There will also be great Standby
Rates!
However, once booked, should you need to amend the dates, the prevailing rates
will apply. We get advised of new flex rates each week. Therefore each quote
only valid until the end of each week.

PROTECTION PACKAGE
Public
Liability Insurance:
The public liability insurance is included in the daily rental rate. Apollo
is insured for damages to third parties and/or their property up to a limit
of USD $1 million. The public liability insurance that covers the registered
drivers is only up to the statutory limit as stipulated by law of the State
you are in at the time. This insurance amount is normally very low.
Top Service Inclusion:
Apollo has included an additional SLI third party insurance policy in the
rental rates which increases the driver’s public liability
insurance level to USD $1 million – well above the statutory
limits.
The maximum SLI insurance covers claims made by third parties against the
rental company or the renter of the motorhome (for damage to third parties
or their property). Passengers in the rented motorhome are not counted
as third parties and the driver is therefore not insured for claims brought
by them against him/herself.
Property Damage:
The
renter is responsible up to the amount of USD $1,000 for the
cost of damage to the rented Vehicle. The renter is also responsible
for the cost of demurrage for the period the Vehicle is unavailable
due to repairs. The Liability applies in respect of each claim,
not per rental. The Liability is applicable regardless of who
is at fault and must be paid at the time the accident is reported
to Apollo, not at the completion of the rental Period.
Liability Reduction Option:
A
USD $0 (zero) Liability applies.
This Option can be purchased by
paying to Apollo USD $15 per day.
The
maximum amount payable for this Option per rental is USD $375 – i.e. 25
days rental.
LRO protects against:
- Accidental damages
- Windscreen and other glass damage
- Protection against theft and vandalism
- Protection against uninsured motorists
Bond:
A
Bond of USD $1,000 will be collected at the time of entering
into the Rental Contract. The USD $1,000 will be debited to
the credit card account immediately. An administration fee
of USD $20 applies.
For security purposes, only a credit card can be used to provide a Bond. The
credit card holder must be present and able to sign for the Bond upon vehicle
collection. The credit card holder is jointly and severally liable for any damage
to the rental vehicle.
The Bond is fully refundable when the vehicle is returned to the correct location
on time, is full of fuel and all other terms of the Rental Contract have been
complied with. If there is damage to the Apollo Motorhome vehicle on its return,
the Bond will be used to cover the cost of such damage up to the amount of the
relevant Liability. However, if the terms of the Rental Contract are breached
and the Bond is insufficient to cover the damage then any extra cost will be
charged.
Full Responsibility:
At
all times the renter is responsible for:
-
Damage
caused where the terms of Rental Contract have been breached.
-
Damage
caused by negligence.
-
Damage
caused to the Vehicle in any way by part or total water
submersion or salt water.
-
Damage
caused due to a single vehicle roll over.
-

-
Damage
caused to the Vehicle when using the Vehicle in contravention
of any legislation or regulation controlling vehicular

-
Damage
caused due to use of incorrect or contaminated fuel.
-

included in the rental price. It is the renter’s
responsibility to get to and from the branch.
Burning Man Festival:
An additional
surcharge of USD $500 applies for travel to the Burning Man
Festival.
Drivers Licence:
A valid,
non-provisional, state or overseas driver’s licence is
required. If the driver’s licence is not in the English
language (e.g. German, French, Chinese, etc) then an international
driver’s licence is also required. The driver’s
licence must have been held for at least two years and be valid
for the whole length of the rental. The original driver’s
licence must be shown at time of pick-up when the driver is
present.
Minimum and Maximum Age:
The minimum
age to drive the vehicle is 21 years and the maximum age is
75 years.
Multiple Rentals:
Consecutive
rentals can be combined to qualify for a long-term discount
rate. Rentals in the United States of America, Australia
and New Zealand can be combined to obtain a long-term
discount rate, providing travel is within a 3 month period.
If drop off of a vehicle and pick up of a new vehicle
occurs on the same day then a day each will be charged
per respective vehicle. Multiple rentals are treated
as separate rentals under the one way fee and minimum
rental period conditions.
Change of Drop Destination:
If
the renter wishes to change the drop off destination after
the rental has commenced, they first must obtain authorisation
from the Apollo Head Office. Subject to the change being
approved, a minimum additional charge of USD $500 will apply.
Repairs:
Although
we run late model vehicles, it may happen that small repairs
are required. Repairs up to USD $100 may be affected without
authorisation and will be reimbursed unless the damage is
caused by the renter. For amounts over USD $100, Apollo will
need to be informed in advance. All vehicles are covered
for 24hr emergency roadside assistance.
Traffic Infringements:
We
reserve the right to charge the renter for any speeding or
parking fines, traffic infringements or road toll fines.
An additional administration fee of $75 per fine will apply
to cover the costs of processing.
Limit of Liability:
In
the event of no alternative vehicle being available to the
renter our liability is limited to a refund of the hire charge
or in the case of mechanical failure (unless caused by the
renter) the remainder of the hire period.

No
animals are permitted in our vehicles, excluding guide dogs.
