How much can you save with discounts?

Insuring your fleet can be pricey, but there could be available discounts that you may not know about. Most are applied at quote time, but some must be inquired about in order for you to get them.

  • Payment Method - By paying your policy upfront rather than paying monthly you may reduce your total bill.
  • Life Insurance Discount - Companies who offer life insurance give better rates if you take out a life insurance policy as well.
  • Own a Home - Simply owning a home can save you money due to the fact that maintaining a home requires personal responsibility.
  • Drivers Ed for Students - Require your teen driver to successfully complete driver's ed class if it's offered in school.
  • Service Members Pay Less - Being deployed with a military unit may qualify for rate reductions.
  • Anti-theft Discount - Vehicles with anti-theft systems help deter theft and therefore earn up to a 10% discount.

As a disclaimer on discounts, some of the credits will not apply to your bottom line cost. Most only apply to the price of certain insurance coverages like liability and collision coverage. So even though it sounds like it's possible to get free car insurance, auto insurance companies aren't that generous. Any amount of discount will reduce the amount you have to pay.

How much car insurance do I need?

When it comes to choosing proper insurance coverage for your personal vehicles, there really is not a one size fits all plan. Everyone's situation is unique and your policy should reflect that. For example, these questions can help discover if your insurance needs could use an agent's help.

  • Are my tools covered if they get stolen from my vehicle?
  • What are the financial responsibility laws in Washington?
  • Does my policy cover my teen driver if they drive my company car?
  • Is my cargo covered for damage or theft?
  • What happens if I owe more than my vehicle is worth?
  • Am I covered if I drive in a foreign country?
  • Am I covered when renting a car or should I buy coverage from the car rental agency?

If you can't answer these questions, then you may want to think about talking to a licensed insurance agent. To find lower rates from a local agent, fill out this quick form or you can also visit this page to select a carrier
