How to find cheaper Memphis car insurance rates

To save the most money, the best way to get low-cost car insurance rates is to make a habit of regularly comparing prices from different companies in Memphis.

1. Try to learn about how insurance companies determine prices and the measures you can control to drop your rates. Many risk factors that cause rate increases like speeding and a bad credit score can be eliminated by making small lifestyle or driving habit changes. Keep reading for the details to help find cheaper rates and earn larger discounts.
2. Compare price quotes from direct, independent, and exclusive agents. Exclusive and direct companies can provide rates from one company like GEICO or Allstate, while agents who are independent can provide price quotes for many different companies.
3. Compare the price quotes to your existing policy to determine if you can save on insurance. If you find a lower rate and decide to switch, make sure there is no coverage gap between policies.
4. Tell your current company of your intent to cancel your existing policy. Submit a down payment and signed policy application for the new coverage. When you receive it, keep your new certificate verifying coverage somewhere easily accessible.

A good tip to remember is to try to compare the same physical damage deductibles and liability limits on every price quote and and to get rates from as many car insurance companies as possible. Doing this ensures an apples-to-apples comparison and a good representation of prices.
