How much does it cost to cancel car insurance early?

Is there a fee for canceling car insurance before the policy is up? After many years of putting my education on hold, I have decided to move to another state to attend my dream school and get my master’s degree. I will need to cancel my Geico car insurance early.

“Congratulations on acceptance to your dream school!
The cost of
canceling car insurance
early varies from company to company. The fee might be as low as $25 or up to 10% of the cost of the remaining unpaid premium.
Fortunately,
canceling Geico insurance
won’t cost you a penny—Geico has no cancellation fee! All you have to do is:
  • Check with your local DMV about your state’s license plate requirements.
  • Call 1-800-841-1587 to speak with a licensed Geico agent.
  • When prompted, say cancel insurance policy, then auto.
  • You’ll be asked for your Geico policy number, so have that ready.
And that’s it! Easy peasy.
