How to save on auto insurance in Jackson

Drivers should always be searching for ways to cut the monthly cost of car insurance, so scan the savings tips in this next list and maybe you’ll be able to save a few bucks on your next policy purchase.

• Choose a vehicle that is cheaper to insure. Vehicle type is a big factor in the price you pay for insurance. As an example, a Volvo XC40 costs $2,264 less per year to insure in Jackson than a Acura NSX. Lower performance vehicles cost less to insure.
• Avoiding accidents makes for cheaper car insurance in Jackson. Having frequent accidents may increase rates, possibly by an extra $3,754 per year for a 20-year-old driver and even $644 per year for a 60-year-old driver. So drive safe and save money!
• Research policy discounts to save money. Discounts may be available if the policyholders insure their home and car with the same company, drive low annual mileage, drive a vehicle with safety or anti-theft features, are senior citizens, or many other policy discounts which could save the average Jackson driver as much as $442 per year on the cost of car insurance
• Remove unneeded coverage on older cars. Deleting comprehensive and collision coverage from vehicles whose value has dropped to the point where coverage is not cost effective can reduce the cost of car insurance substantially.
• Polish up your credit rating for lower rates. Maintaining a high credit score could save around $412 per year compared to a credit rating of 670-739. Conversely, a poor credit rating could cost around $478 more per year. Not all states use credit score as a rating factor, so check with your agent or company.
• Compare the cost of insurance before buying a car. Different models, and even different trim levels of the same model, can have very different insurance premiums, and companies can sell policies with a wide range of prices. Get quotes to compare the cost of insurance before you buy a different vehicle in order to avoid price shock when buying coverage for your new car.
• Shop around and save. Take a couple of minutes to get some free car insurance quotes can significantly reduce your monthly cost. Rates change often and switching to a different company is very easy to do.
