Which method you use is up to you, but make darn sure you compare apples-to-apples deductibles and coverage limits on every quote you get. If you use different values for each quote then you won't be able to determine which rate is truly the best in Shelton. Just a small difference in coverage limits could mean much higher rates. And when comparison shopping, having more price comparisons gives you a better chance of getting better pricing.

Be sure to get all your discounts

The cost of insuring your cars can be expensive, but companies offer discounts to help offset the cost. Some trigger automatically when you quote, but less common discounts must be specifically requested before you get the savings.

  • College Student - Children who attend school more than 100 miles from home without a vehicle on campus can receive lower rates.
  • Senior Citizens - Mature drivers can possibly qualify for a discount up to 10%.
  • Military Discounts - Having a deployed family member can result in better rates.
  • Good Student Discount - A discount for being a good student can earn a discount of 20% or more. This discount can apply up to age 25.
  • Own a Home - Owning a house in Shelton may trigger a auto insurance policy discount because of the fact that having a home is proof that your finances are in order.
  • No Claims - Drivers who don't have accidents can save substantially as compared to bad drivers.
  • Memberships - Being a member of a professional or civic organization could qualify you for a break on auto insurance.

It's important to understand that most credits do not apply to the overall cost of the policy. Most only apply to specific coverage prices like liability, collision or medical payments. Just because you may think all the discounts add up to a free policy, it doesn't quite work that way. Any qualifying discounts will help reduce the amount you have to pay.
