When hiring a car, especially if you’re arriving in Long Beach by flight, plan for extra time at pickup to accommodate any potential delays. Suppliers like Dollar typically offer a grace period of 30-60 minutes. Providing your flight number can be helpful, but if you’re running late, be sure to call the supplier to inform them.

If you're traveling with pets, confirm the rental company's pet policy before booking. Some companies allow pets but may have specific fees or restrictions, so it’s best to clarify in advance.

When hiring a car in Long Beach, choose a car hire deal with a “Full-to-Full” or “Same-to-Same” fuel policy from suppliers like Dollar. These policies ensure you only pay for the fuel you use, helping you avoid unnecessary costs. While a “Full-to-Empty” policy might seem convenient, it can often be more expensive if you don’t use all the fuel.
