For additional non-refundable fees, you may purchase from us a “Liability Reduction Option 1”, “Liability Reduction Option 2” and “All inclusive” insurance.

If an accident occurs before the expiry of the Rental Period you must pay additional fees for the remaining days of your hire if you still wish to obtain the benefit of “ Liability Reduction Option 1”, “Liability Reduction Option 2” or “All inclusive” insurance for the remainder of the Rental Period. The “Liability Reduction Option 1”, “Liability Reduction Option 2” and “All inclusive” fees and the amount of reduction to the Bond are set out as follows:
