What is Collision Damage Waiver or CDW?
In the event of an insurance claim, Collision Damage Waiver – or CDW, as it is also known – protects you from loosing your deposit. This can be taken out with an additional payment at the time of hire. Please note, however, that this does not cover you for negligent damage to wheels and tyres, theft of wheels and tyres including spares, or theft of audio equipment. It is only available to drivers aged 21 and over hiring vans and commercials, and for drivers aged 25 and over hiring cars and 12 seaters, and is also subject to the driver having a satisfactory driving record. The cost for this option can be advised at the time of hire.
