Do I need insurance to rent a car in Las Cruces?

When cruising through Las Cruces or the rest of the U.S. of A., you will need insurance. Almost every supplier requires that you show proof of insurance before you rent a car.

Most suppliers allow you to choose which policy you want. Here is a list of the typical policies.

What fuel policy do you recommend?

Most suppliers provide you a full tank policy. At CarRentals.com, we recommend returning your car filled up. To avoid any added expenses, it is best to find a gas station before bringing the car rental.

Is it worth getting unlimited miles?

Unlimited miles is a good choice if you decide to do a bit of sightseeing or visit a lot of clients all over Las Cruces. You can drive as much as you want without incurring extra charges. Go over your rental agreement to discover if there are any restrictions.

Tips before you leave the lot

Make sure you check a few items before you leave the rental lot. It's important to:

• Inspect your vehicle and make sure there is no dents or scratches. Be sure to make note of it on the paperwork, or you may get charged for it
• Make you have a properly inflated spare tire, lug wrench, and jack in the trunk
• Get familiar with the controls of your car. Adjust the mirrors and seats to your liking, and figure out how to turn on the lights and windshield wipers
• Get comfortable operating the navigation and entertainment. You don't want any unneeded distractions in a new city
