See, this is what I love about pre-paid plans - when "I'm planning to keep my current carrier (which is on Verizon's network) & phone for whenever I go out of town" you can let that phone go out of service when it's not needed, then just top it off when it is. Cell phones always have 911 service by law and carriers don't seem to re-assign numbers between bouts of pre-paid active status as frequently as they used to (AT&T doesn't, anyhow; cheaper or different carriers like Verizon, though, still might).
As to Mint's coverage, I was all like, "Yay!" as I checked the coverage map until I glanced slightly southwest of our city and there was this sea-sized patch of almost entirely white with tiny blue dots sprinkled throughout. That's the direction we go to visit the feed store, beaches, people we know out there and whatever else so I was like, "Wait...no, no, no".
