Save big with these discounts

  • Federal Employees - Being employed by or retired from a federal job can save as much as 8% with a few auto insurance companies.
  • Good Student - A discount for being a good student can get you a discount of up to 25%. Earning this discount can benefit you well after school through age 25.
  • Paperwork-free - Certain companies will discount your bill up to fifty bucks just for signing your application over the internet.
  • Low Mileage Discounts - Fewer annual miles could be rewarded with a substantially lower rate.

When choosing the best auto insurance coverage for your vehicles, there isn't really a one size fits all plan.

  • Am I covered if I drive in a foreign country?
  • Do I need to file an SR-22 for a DUI in Oregon?
  • Does my liability insurance cover pulling a trailer or camper?
  • Does my personal policy cover me when driving my company car?
  • Is my dog or cat covered if injured in an accident?
  • What can I do if my company won't pay a claim?
