Ways to pay less

  • Get quotes from several insurers with identical limits and deductibles.
  • Ask about discounts you may qualify for, such as bundling with renters or home insurance, good-student, low-mileage and safe-driver discounts.
  • Raise your collision and comprehensive deductibles only if your emergency savings could cover them.
  • On an older car, compare the cost of collision coverage with what the car is worth.
