Maximizing Value: Tips for Getting the Best Deals on Your Car Rental

Let’s face it — car rental costs can add up fast, especially if you're visiting during peak season or flying into busy airports like Las Vegas or Bullhead City. But here’s the good news: With the right strategy and the right rental partner, you can save big without cutting corners on comfort or reliability.

At CJB RENTALS, we’re all about giving you real value, clear pricing, and local support. Here are some insider tips to help you get the best deal on your rental, no matter where your travels take you across Laughlin, Kingman, Lake Havasu, Needles, and beyond.

1. Book Early — Especially for Weekends or Events

Planning to visit during:

• A Laughlin River Run weekend?
• Lake Havasu spring break or boating season?
• Holiday getaways in Las Vegas or the Grand Canyon?

Then book early. Our rates stay fair and transparent, but demand rises fast during big events. Booking early means more vehicle options, better rates, and no last-minute surprises.

2. Consider Long-Term or Weekly Discounts

Renting for more than just a few days? Ask about our:

• Weekly rates (save more per day vs. daily rentals)
• Monthly and long-term packages
• Mileage bundle options for road trippers hitting multiple cities

Many renters extend once they realize how convenient and affordable we make long-term rentals — especially compared to big rental brands with inflated airport fees.

3. Skip the Airport Fees — Rent Local Instead

Airports love to stack on extra taxes and fees — but you don’t have to rent from a kiosk to get a car. CJB RENTALS offers pickup and delivery options, so you can skip long lines, avoid airport surcharges, and still get your rental on time — even for late-night flights (yes, we’re available 24/7).

4. Choose the Right Vehicle for the Trip

Save by matching the vehicle to your trip:

• Compact or mid-size cars are great for Vegas, city driving, and fuel economy
• SUVs offer more space for road trips to the Grand Canyon or Lake Havasu
• Twins or matching models are great for group trips — especially when you want separate vehicles but a coordinated look

Need help deciding? Just ask — we’ll recommend the best option based on your travel plans.

5. Avoid Overpaying for Insurance

Rental insurance can be confusing — and expensive if you don't plan ahead. Before you book:

• Check your personal auto insurance to see what’s covered
• See if your credit card offers rental coverage
• Ask us about Turo protection plans or outside providers if you book through CJB RENTALS

We’ll always give you straightforward advice on what you do (and don’t) need — no upsells, just transparency.

6. Watch for Hidden Fees (We Don’t Do That)

Many national rental companies surprise you with:

• Daily mileage caps
• Added fees for late returns
• Charges for “cleaning” or “fuel refill” that weren’t disclosed

At CJB RENTALS, we clearly list all fees upfront — no games, no gotchas. What you see is what you pay.

Want the Best Deal? Rent Smart. Rent Local.

When you rent from CJB RENTALS, you’re getting more than a good price — you’re getting real value, peace of mind, and a team that works around your schedule. Whether you’re flying into Laughlin at 10PM or road-tripping through the Mojave, we’re here 24/7 to make your trip smooth and affordable.
