How to compare free insurance quotes

Effectively comparing insurance prices is a ton of work if you aren’t aware of the fastest way to get free quotes. You can waste hours discussing policy coverages with insurance agencies in your area, or you could use the web to get rates in a matter of minutes.

Most major companies take part in a program where prospective buyers complete one form, and every company then returns a price quote based on the submitted data. This system prevents you from having to do quote forms for each company you want a rate for.

The single downside to using this type of form is that consumers can’t choose which insurance companies you want pricing from. If you wish to select from a list of companies to compare, we have a listing of low cost insurance companies in your area. View list of insurance companies.

Whichever way you choose to compare rates, compare equivalent quote data for each comparison quote. If your comparisons have different limits and deductibles on each one it’s not possible to make a fair rate comparison. Even a minor difference in coverage limits may result in large price differences. Just keep in mind that making a lot of price comparisons increases the change that you will find a lower rate than you’re paying now. Some smaller insurers to not give price estimates online, so you also need to get price estimates from them, too.

Take advantage of every car insurance discount

Companies don’t always advertise every available discount very well, so the following list contains both well-publicized and the harder-to-find discounts that may be available. If you do not check that you are getting every discount possible, it’s possible you qualify for a lower rate.

Multi-car Discount – Buying coverage for more than one vehicle on a single policy qualifies for this discount.
Discount for Multiple Policies – When you have multiple policies and insure them with the same company you may earn up to 20% and get you affordable insurance.
Discount for Life Insurance – Not every insurance company offers life insurance, but if they do you may earn lower rates if you buy auto and life insurance together.
Early Switch Discount – A few companies offer discounts for switching policies prior to your current policy expiration. You can save around 10% with this discount.
New Vehicle Savings – Putting insurance coverage on a new car can be considerably cheaper compared to insuring an older model.
Student in College – Any of your kids who live away from home to go to college and do not take a car to college may be insured at a cheaper rate.
Theft Deterent System – Cars, trucks, and SUVs equipped with tracking devices and advanced anti-theft systems can help prevent theft and can earn a small discount on your policy.
ABS and Traction Control Discounts – Anti-lock brake equipped vehicles have fewer accidents and qualify for as much as a 10% discount.

We need to note that some of the credits will not apply to all coverage premiums. Some only reduce the price of certain insurance coverages like liability and collision coverage. So even though they make it sound like you could get a free car insurance policy, it just doesn’t work that way.

What insurance coverages do you need?

Having a good grasp of a insurance policy can be of help when determining the right coverages for your vehicles. Policy terminology can be confusing and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording.

Liability coverages

This will cover injuries or damage you cause to a person or their property that is your fault. This coverage protects you against other people’s claims. Liability doesn’t cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

It consists of three limits, bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. You commonly see limits of 100/300/100 which stand for a $100,000 limit per person for injuries, a limit of $300,000 in injury protection per accident, and property damage coverage for $100,000.

Liability coverage protects against things such as legal defense fees, medical services, bail bonds, court costs and loss of income. How much coverage you buy is a personal decision, but you should buy as high a limit as you can afford.

Comprehensive insurance

This will pay to fix damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first must pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive insurance covers things like damage from getting keyed, damage from a tornado or hurricane and a tree branch falling on your vehicle. The maximum amount a insurance company will pay at claim time is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider dropping full coverage.

Coverage for uninsured or underinsured drivers

This coverage gives you protection from other drivers when they are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. It can pay for medical payments for you and your occupants as well as damage to your Hyundai Sonata.

Because many people have only the minimum liability required by law, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is very important.

Coverage for collisions

Collision coverage covers damage to your Sonata caused by collision with another car or object. You have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision insurance covers things like hitting a mailbox, sideswiping another vehicle, colliding with another moving vehicle and rolling your car. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from vehicles that are older. Another option is to choose a higher deductible to bring the cost down.

Coverage for medical expenses

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance provide coverage for short-term medical expenses for things like funeral costs, hospital visits, pain medications, prosthetic devices and rehabilitation expenses. They are often used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if you are not covered by health insurance. They cover both the driver and occupants and will also cover if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP is not an option in every state and may carry a deductible
