Don't get charged for damage you didn't cause.

Hire-Guard records your rental car's condition when you collect it and when you return it — creating a clear digital evidence trail if a damage claim ever appears.

Build your evidence before there's a dispute.

Photos and records can be important when a vehicle damage disagreement arises. Hire-Guard makes capturing and keeping that evidence part of the rental process.

01

Record the Condition

Follow a guided inspection covering:

  • Bodywork
  • Wheels
  • Tyres
  • Glass
  • Interior
  • Mileage
  • Fuel/battery
  • Existing damage
02

Lock the Evidence

Capture:

  • Photographs
  • Timestamp
  • Inspection details
  • Location where available
  • Vehicle information

Once the inspection is complete, the evidence can be locked into a tamper-evident record.

03

Compare the Return

Compare collection and return evidence.

Show potential changes between the two inspections and allow the customer to review the underlying photographs.

Record it. Lock it. Compare it. Prove it.

01

Collect Your Vehicle

Enter your rental and vehicle details and start the guided collection inspection.

02

Capture The Evidence

Photograph the vehicle, record existing damage, mileage, fuel/battery and location.

03

Return The Vehicle

Repeat the inspection when your rental ends and lock the return evidence.

04

Review The Difference

Compare the collection and return evidence and create an evidence pack if required.

When a damage claim arrives, you already have the evidence.

If a rental company later alleges damage, your Hire-Guard record gives you a structured starting point for reviewing the claim against what was documented at collection and return.
