Saving money on auto insurance
Drivers should always be looking to pay less for insurance, so glance at the tips and ideas in the list below and maybe you can save a few bucks on your next policy purchase.
- Pay small claims out-of-pocket. Most auto insurance companies offer a discount if you do not file any claims. Insurance should only be used for significant financial loss, not nickel-and-dime type claims.
- Compare insurance costs before buying a car. Different cars, and even different trim levels of the same car, have very different car insurance rates, and car insurance companies can charge a wide range of costs. Check rates before you buy a different car so you can avoid any surprises when insuring your new car.
- Careful drivers have lower Boston auto insurance rates. Causing too many accidents will raise rates, as much as $2,384 per year for a 20-year-old driver and as much as $700 per year for a 40-year-old driver. So drive safe and save!
- Clean up your credit for better rates. Insureds with excellent credit scores of 800+ could save as much as $268 per year when compared to a rating of 670-739. Conversely, a below average credit score could cost around $310 more per year. Not all states use credit score as a rating factor, so check with your agent or company.
- If your car is older, remove unneeded coverages. Dropping physical damage coverage (comprehensive and collision) from vehicles that are older can cut the cost of car insurance significantly.
