How can I make changes to my car insurance?

I’ve had State Farm car insurance for years now, and I’ve been hearing recently about all the discounts my friends are getting by switching to other companies. I’m starting to think that it might be time for a change. How do I go about changing my car insurance?

It’s true, there is definitely money to be saved in
switching your car insurance
! To change your car insurance, the first thing you’ll want to do is compare auto insurers by getting quotes.
A good rule of thumb is to get three quotes from three different providers. This will give you a good estimate of your cost range as well as policy features,
coverage types
, limits, and deductibles.
A great way to compare quotes online or on your mobile device is through the Jerry app. Jerry can provide you with customized quotes from over 50 of the top insurance companies in the U.S. Jerry can also help you switch over to your new policy quickly and hassle-free.
Before you decide to switch, though, you should thoroughly research the company you intend to switch to. You’ll want to know more about what people have to say about the company and the types of coverage they offer.
You should be careful to avoid any coverage gaps while switching, since insurers can charge significantly higher rates after any lapse in coverage. To avoid this, simply set your new policy to begin the same day your old one officially ends, and you should be all set.
Good luck in finding the right policy for you!
