ECO ZERO SRLS, with registered office in Bolzano (BZ), Via Maso della Pieve 4/F, VAT No. 02942560216, hereinafter referred to as the “Lessor,” rents to the Lessee (“Customer”) the vehicle specified on the front page of this rental agreement (“Vehicle”) for the agreed period.
The vehicle may be driven by the Customer or—if indicated on the front page of this agreement—by a “second driver,” provided both are at least 21 years old (25 years for vintage vehicles) and have held a valid driving license for the appropriate vehicle class for at least 12 months. The vehicle may not be driven by any other person unless the Lessor provides prior written authorization. The Customer assumes full risk and responsibility for allowing third parties to use the vehicle and for violations of Article 116, Section XII of the Italian Highway Code related to driving without a valid license. The following documents are required to rent the vehicle: valid driving license, ID card or
passport, tax code, and a credit card for the security deposit.
The vehicle is delivered in perfect working condition with a full tank, accessories, equipment, and registration documents. The Customer, by signing, accepts the vehicle as suitable and defect-free. This contract grants possession, not ownership. The Customer acquires no real rights over the vehicle or its accessories.
The Customer agrees to responsible usage, including:
No driving on unpaved roads
No transport of dangerous/illegal goods
No use invalidating insurance
No paid transport
No towing
No driving under the influence
No races or competitions
No driving lessons
No subletting or unauthorized transfers
No use beyond the intended purpose
Driving outside the EU is only permitted where “Green Card” insurance applies. The Customer is liable for all traffic fines and must pay them immediately. Repatriation costs: €2/km. In the event of theft, full liability applies if the keys are not returned or in cases of gross negligence.
The Customer undertakes not to provide false information regarding identity, age, address, or driving license, and indemnifies the Lessor from any consequences arising from such misrepresentations. The Customer must hold a valid license and not be subject to legal or administrative restrictions. The Customer agrees to pay the rental fee indicated on the front page plus VAT and to return the vehicle at the agreed location and time in the same condition (except for normal wear and tear). Optional insurance (if agreed), fuel, extra mileage, and additional charges must also be paid. The Customer authorizes the Lessor to charge contractual penalties, fines, damages, etc., to the credit
card provided.
The Lessor is not liable for any damages of any kind to persons, animals, or property of the Customer or third parties, including damages due to unavailability of the vehicle, breakdowns, accidents, theft, unrest, war, natural disasters, force majeure, or unforeseen events. Items left in the vehicle are considered abandoned. The Customer and their heirs waive any claims against the Lessor related to the use of the vehicle or loss/damage of property.
Reservations can be made on the website (www.rentgarda.com) or on-site. A valid driver’s license, ID, and tax code are required for reservation. A deposit of 30% of the rental amount must be paid. Providing false or incomplete data results in liability. Cancellation is free up to 48 hours before rental start (excluding bank fees); afterward, the full amount is due.
A rental day runs from 9:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. (not 24h), with a 15-minute grace period. Delivery takes place at the station specified in the contract. Return must occur during office hours. Return outside office hours is only allowed with prior approval; in that case, the rental ends at reopening. Delays over 30 minutes incur a penalty (see Art. 13). The vehicle, keys, documents, and accessories must be fully returned, or a penalty will apply. Changes to the return time require the Lessor’s approval. In case of late return, the Lessor may repossess the vehicle at the Customer’s expense.
Payments can be made in cash, with debit card, credit card, or by bank transfer. A 30% deposit is due at booking, with the balance payable upon vehicle pick-up. Travel vouchers are accepted only if issued on an official Eco Zero-Rentgarda form and not excluded by the travel agency.
The Lessor may require a deposit (as indicated on the front page). This may be held via the Customer’s credit card if contractually agreed.
The vehicle has mandatory liability insurance (deductible €250 incl. VAT), excluding the driver. The policy is available at the Lessor’s office, and a copy is in the vehicle. The Customer is liable for damage, fire, or theft up to the market value of the vehicle. The Lessor may charge up to the agreed deductible. Optional insurance is valid only if agreed and paid in advance. A €50 (+VAT) processing fee applies for damage handling. In cases of intent, gross negligence, misuse, or driving under the influence, the Customer is fully
liable.
In the event of an accident, the Customer must immediately notify the Lessor and submit an accident report (incl. CID) within 24 hours with names and addresses of all parties and witnesses. A police report must be filed, and no admission of fault should be made. In case of theft, a police report must be filed immediately. For at-fault accidents, Eco Zero will provide a damage estimate with photos and notify the Customer via email.
The Lessor ensures the vehicle is in working condition (see Art. 2). Rental includes maintenance, except tire damage. Emergency repairs up to €100 (incl. VAT) may be carried out without approval if a receipt is issued in the Lessor’s name. If a defect not caused by the Customer occurs, a replacement vehicle may be provided (if possible) or unused rental time refunded (excluding further compensation). Abandoning the vehicle without consent incurs a €2,500 penalty and full reimbursement of related costs.
If the vehicle is impounded due to the Customer’s fault, the daily rental rate applies until release, up to the vehicle’s replacement value. After payment, ownership may be transferred to the Customer if applicable.
The Customer agrees to comply with all legal obligations, including tolls, parking, and taxes. In case of violations, the Customer bears all fines and charges. The Lessor may either forward Customer data or pay the fine and recover the cost plus a €25 (+VAT) handling fee via credit card—even after contract termination if fines arrive later.
Late return up to 30 minutes: €10. Over 30 minutes: full daily rate. Lost keys or documents: €150. Missing fuel: €15 + fuel. Unreturned helmet: €100.
Any changes or additions to this contract must be in writing to be valid.
This rental agreement is governed by Italian law. Jurisdiction lies with the court of the Lessor’s registered office unless mandatory law provides otherwise.
