How to find cheaper car insurance

Drivers should always be thinking of ways to reduce their monthly insurance expenses. So take a minute or two to look through the money-saving tips below and maybe you’ll be able to save some money.

• Good credit scores mean better rates. Drivers who maintain a credit score over 800 could save $269 per year versus a good rating of 670-739. Conversely, a mediocre credit score could cost up to $312 more per year. Not all states use credit score as a rating factor, so check with your agent or company.
• Keep your claim-free discount. Most insurers offer discounts for not having any claims. Auto insurance should be used in the case of large financial hits, not small claims that can be paid out-of-pocket.
• Reduce coverage on older cars. Deleting physical damage coverage from vehicles whose value has dropped to the point where coverage is not cost effective will cut the cost of car insurance considerably.
• Earn policy discounts to save money. Discounted rates may be available if the insured drivers insure their home and car with the same company, take a defensive driving course, are good students, work in certain occupations, drive low annual mileage, or many other policy discounts which could save the average Huntsville driver as much as $288 per year.
• Compare the cost of insurance before buying a car. Different cars, trucks, and SUVs have very different costs for insurance, and insurance companies can sell coverages with widely varying rates. Get plenty of comparison quotes before you buy a different car so you can avoid any surprises when buying coverage for your new car.
