How do you change a car insurance?

I've been having a really bad experience with my current auto insurance provider, so I’m ready to look for a new company. How do I go about changing my car insurance policy?

Good customer service is an important aspect of maintaining an insurance company’s reputation. In this case, switching providers is one of the best things you can do. To find new
car insurance
, follow these steps:
  • Identify what you want in your provider (good customer service? A good mobile app?)
  • Decide what coverage you want (minimum/liability-only, full-coverage, etc.)
  • Research the providers that offer the best rates to see if they align with your preferences
Once you have purchased the new policy, inform your current provider that you will be switching to a new provider. Make sure the end date of the old policy matches the start date of the new policy to avoid a lapse in coverage.
