1. Shop Around and Compare Quotes
. Don’t accept the first quote you receive.
. Take advantage of online comparison tools or reach out to more than one insurer.
. Prices can vary widely between companies for the same coverage.
2. Dial Your Coverage Up or Down as Needed
. If the value is low, drop optional coverage on older cars (such as collision or comprehensive).
. You might also think about raising your deductible — as a rule, higher deductibles, lower premiums.
3. Maintain a Good Credit Score
. Insurers use your credit score to set rates in many states.
. Pay bills on time and have low credit card balances.

. Multi-policy (bundle auto with home/renters)
. Low-mileage driver
. Good student discount

5. Drive Safely
. Lower premiums if you have a clean driving record.
. If you can, steer clear of speeding tickets accidents and claims.
6. Review Your Policy Annually
. Your needs and/or driving habits may be different.
. Carriers frequently overhaul their pricing models — you might be paying too much without even knowing it.
7. Consider Usage-Based Insurance (UBI)
. Other programs — like Snapshot (Progressive) or Drive Safe & Save (State Farm) — monitor your driving and allow for rates to be tailored.
. Good drivers can save big.
8. Choose the Right Car
. Rates depend on the car you drive.
. You have to pay more for insurance if your car is a sports car, not a sedan or an SUV.
9. Pay Premiums Annually or Semi-Annually
. It is very common that you be charged set up fees paying monthly.
. You might also receive a discount for paying up front from some insurers.
