When travelling with children, you will need to request or fit a child seat until the child reaches the age of 12, or a height of 135 cm tall, whichever one comes first. Child seats must face the rear of the vehicle until the child has reached an age of 15 months old, then you can switch the seat to forward facing. You should make sure that the child seat is EU approved and has an E and R129 label. You can ask for a child seat from the car hire company in advance.

Some Ipswich car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend being aware of your coverage when hiring a car in Ipswich.
Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a non-deductible option to your Ipswich car hire.
