KMH understands that you don’t rent a vehicle expecting to need insurance, but we understand that accidents do happen, so we want to assure you that KMH has you covered. KMH has a comprehensive commercial insurance policy which will provide cover for the vehicles whilst on hire, this is included in the daily rate and is subject to standard excesses.

Excess reduction options are available on request.

No, when you request a booking the comprehensive Insurance policy costs will be calculated and included in the daily rate, this is compulsory.

If you are in an accident or any accidental damage is sustained to the motorhome you need to notify KMH immediately, we will then assess your safety and the ability to safely continue driving the motorhome, we will discuss with you and endeavor to get you back on the road and enjoying your holiday as quickly as possible.

If the camper is not safe to continue driving we will try our best to secure an alternative vehicle to help get you back on the road, however we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do this on all occasions.

KMH will endeavour all efforts are undertaken to organise a similar replacement vehicle where a vehicle has been damaged and cannot be repaired in time for the start of your hire.

If a similar replacement vehicle cannot be secured by KMH, then KMH will refund the full amount of any payment made by the hirer to KMH, this will then automatically terminate the hire agreement.

The Hirer agrees that KMH shall not be liable for any further additional costs incurred due to cancellation of the hire contract.

The hirer is required to notify KMH in all accident related events as soon as any damages occur to the motorhome. If KMH assess and approve that the motorhome is still safe to continue driving then the hirer can continue on with their holiday, at this stage the Insurance excess is debited. At the end of the hire KMH will have the damage assessed and notify the Hirer of costs.
