How much does it cost to cancel your car insurance?
I sold my car and do not need to drive anymore. How do I cancel my car insurance?
Grace Cho · Updated on
Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
When it is time to cancel your
car insurance
, you will want to cancel your plan as soon as possible so that you don’t get charged for a policy that you don’t need.Keep in mind, if you do not cancel your insurance and do not make your payment, your policy will be canceled for non-payment. This can negatively affect your credit record and put you in a high-risk category for future insurance policies.
Depending on your state and insurance company, you may be charged a cancellation fee that can start from $25 or 10% of the remaining policy. One way of avoiding the fee is by having the policy cancelation date and renewal date the same. Many insurance providers do not have a fee, but you can call them to check before canceling the policy.
