Newlands Coach Services Limited ("the Company") appreciate the
opportunity of submitting a quotation for hire together with its
standard terms and conditions of hire, which ensure you as the hirer
are protected and that the best interests of both parties are catered
for.
The rate charged is appropriate
to the coach category and capacity.
Requested variation to the coach from that originally quoted
is dependent on availability and any change in cost. |
| The quoted rates include the services of a
Coach Driver. |
The rates quoted are net
rates in New Zealand currency and include GST unless otherwise
stated.
Payment, in full, is required prior to departure unless approval
has been granted by the Company for credit terms to apply.
In such event, settlement in full must be made by the 20th of
the month following the debit of the charge. |
Quotations are given and orders confirmed subject
to availability of vehicles at the respective times of quotation
and confirmation.
Quotations are based on the shortest suitable route unless otherwise
started. |
Should additional kilometres
or time be incurred on the day of the hire by the hirer, the
Company reserves the right to adjust the quoted rate accordingly.
The quotation is given on the understanding that the driving
hours comply with current legislation. |
| The Company does not guarantee to complete
any journey in a given time and will not accept liability for
any loss or inconvenience with may arise from the delay or detention
of any vehicle arising from any cause whatever. |
The Company will ensure every
reasonable effort is made to carry out the hirer's requirements
and no responsibility is accepted for additional costs caused
by delays occasioned by changes in road conditions or deviations
from normal routes, floods or other unusual circumstances, industrial
action, sickness of staff or passengers.
The Company reserves the right to substitute alternative equipment
at its option in the event of unanticipated circumstances which
necessitate a change. |
The Company does not accept responsibility
for loss or damage to property left in the vehicle.
Passengers leaving property in the coaches do so entirely at
their own risk. |
| Smoking is not permitted
on the vehicle. |
Section 38 of the Summary Offences Act 1981
states that "there is a total ban on the consumption of alcohol
on any passenger services vehicle including on charter".
Based on the above statement the Company must enforce this with
a policy banning the consumption of alcohol on all of our vehicles.
We regret the inconvenience this may cause but trust that you
will understand the position we must take. |
| The hirer is liable for the
first $500 for any wilful or reckless damage that occurs to
the vehicle over the duration of the hire. |
