Five ways to reduce the cost of car insurance

If you own a vehicle, you have to have insurance, it’s just a fact of life. But there are some ways to help ensure you’re not paying too much. The five tips below are a few of the best ways to help keep costs down.

  • Get a discount from your profession. Some auto insurance providers offer discounts for certain occupations like scientists, doctors, high school and elementary teachers, emergency medical technicians, college professors, architects, and others. By qualifying for an occupational discount, you may save between $65 and $211 on your yearly auto insurance cost, subject to policy limits.
  • Obey driving laws to save money. In order to get the cheapest auto insurance in Lancaster, it pays to drive safe. Just a couple of minor traffic violations could end up increasing the cost of a policy by as much as $576 per year.
  • Improve your credit for cheaper car insurance. Having excellent credit of 800+ could save $341 per year when compared to a lower credit score of 670-739. Conversely, a poor credit score could cost as much as $395 more per year. Not all states use credit score as a rating factor, so check with your agent or company.
  • Pay small claims out-of-pocket. Car insurance companies reduce rates a little if you have no claims on your account. Auto insurance should be used to protect you from larger claims, not for small claims.
  • Compare insurance cost before you buy the car. Different vehicles have significantly different auto insurance rates, and insurers can charge very different rates. Get quotes to compare the cost of insurance before you buy a new vehicle in order to avoid any surprises when you receive your bill.
