When you hire a car your rental agreement will normally cover for collision damage waiver and theft.  However, if the car is damaged or stolen you will be asked under the rental agreement to pay a portion of the costs - called the ‘excess’.  If you take out excess insurance you can reduce that excess, ensuring that if there is loss or damage to the hire car you will be fully reimbursed.

Insurance4carhire are an innovative online insurance excess provider whose core business is the provision of car rental Excess insurance, offering a low cost alternative to the expensive Excess Waiver charges offered by other car rental companies.

Insurance4carhire was acquired by Towergate Partnership in 2007 and has now teamed up with Towergate Chapman Stevens, one of the insurance market leaders in the travel industry, to offer their customers the opportunity to cover their car rental excess online and provide peace of mind.
