Rental Policy

Terms & Conditions

Please read these rental terms carefully before confirming your booking
with Milas Rental, a part of Milas Travel & Tours Sdn Bhd, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah.

1. Rental Rates & Duration

  • Rates are quoted per day (24 hours) and include unlimited mileage unless otherwise stated.
  • A grace period of 1 hour is allowed after the due return time.
  • Each extra hour is charged at 10% of the daily rate; 4 extra hours or more counts as a full day.
  • Quoted rates are subject to change without prior notice.

2. Security Deposit

  • A refundable security deposit of RM200 is collected at pick-up (cash or online transfer).
  • The deposit is refunded upon return of the vehicle in its original condition, less any amounts owed under these terms.

3. Insurance & Damage Excess

  • Basic insurance is included in the rental rate. In the event of an accident, the hirer is responsible only for the applicable excess, not the daily rental for the repair period.
  • Rates do not include full indemnity for damage to third-party property or bodily injury. The hirer’s liability is capped at the excess amounts below.
Vehicle Group (Engine) Accident Excess (RM) Wrong-Fuel Charge (RM)
Below 1,000cc 1,500 2,000

  • The hirer is responsible for damage arising from illegal, negligent or careless acts; tyre punctures or burst tyres; a flat battery caused by leaving electrical devices on; loss of or damage to accessories, windows, mirrors or the undercarriage.
  • In a third-party accident, the hirer must record the other vehicle’s registration number, driver’s name and licence number. If the claim cannot be made against the third party’s insurer, costs fall on the hirer subject to the excess above.
  • Any accident, theft or loss must be reported to us and to the police within 24 hours, with a written police report obtained.
