How to Get Lebanon Auto Insurance Comparison Quotes

Cutting your auto insurance rates can be relatively painless. Consumers just need to invest a little time getting comparison quotes from different insurance companies. This can be accomplished using a couple different methods.

  • The recommended way to find the lowest comparison rates is a comparison rater form like this one (opens in new window). This method prevents you from having to do separate quotation requests for each company. Just one form compares rates from auto insurance companies with the best prices.
  • A less efficient way to shop for auto insurance online is going to the website for each individual company to request a price quote. For instance, let's say you want to compare , and . You would have to go to every website and enter your information, which is why most consumers use the first method.

Which method you use is up to you, but be sure to compare apples-to-apples coverage limits and deductibles for each price quote. If you are comparing different liability limits it will be next to impossible to truly determine the lowest rate in Lebanon.

Policy discounts you shouldn't miss

Car insurance companies don't always list every available discount very well, so the following is a list of some of the best known and the more hidden auto insurance savings. If you don't get every credit you qualify for, you're paying more than you need to.

  • Anti-lock Brake Discount - Anti-lock brake equipped vehicles are safer to drive and will save you 10% or more.
  • Early Signing - A few companies offer discounts for signing up before your current expiration date. This can save 10% or more.
  • Anti-theft System - Anti-theft and alarm systems are stolen less frequently and qualify for as much as a 10% discount.
  • Multi-policy Discount - When you combine your home and auto insurance with one company you may earn 10% to 20% off each policy.
  • Good Student - A discount for being a good student can save 20 to 25%. The good student discount can last until age 25.
  • Accident Forgiveness - Some insurance companies permit an accident before raising your premiums if you are claim-free for a certain period of time.
  • Discount for Life Insurance - Larger companies have a break if you buy life insurance from them.

It's important to understand that most credits do not apply to the entire policy premium. The majority will only reduce the cost of specific coverages such as comprehensive or collision. So even though they make it sound like you would end up receiving a 100% discount, it doesn't quite work that way.

Insurance agents can help

When choosing coverage for your vehicles, there really is no one size fits all plan. Each situation is unique and a cookie cutter policy won't apply. For example, these questions may help highlight whether your personal situation will benefit from professional help.

  • Does my insurance cover a custom paint job?
  • Does my car insurance cover rental cars?
  • Can I get a multi-policy discount for packaging my home and auto coverage?
  • Am I covered when renting a car or should I buy coverage from the car rental agency?
  • Are my tools covered if they get stolen from my vehicle?
  • What are the best liability limits?
