Getting Dirt Cheap Auto Insurance

We all want to save money, and getting dirt cheap auto insurance is a great way to wind up with some extra money in your pocket every month.

Would you like to reduce your insurance costs? If so, your search stops here as this article will reveal steps to take and show all the resources you need to pay far less. I'll give you many guaranteed recommendations that will make you qualify for massive discounts. And this will be without downgrading the quality of coverage you get. Here they are...

Features like automatic gas cut-off, alarms and other anti-theft devices are encouraged. Since they reduce the likelihood of your car being stolen they attract a reasonable discount. Thieves will think twice before attempting to steal a car with anti-theft devices.

There are classes that are designed to make you a better driver. Join them. In addition to making you a better driver, it will get you a discount with your insurer provided such a class is recognized by them.

You'll get a No Claims bonus or discount if you do not make any claims for about four years. Those who understand how to take advantage of this often handle very minor repairs and fixes and so easily become eligible for this discount. Handling little fixes on your own will help you save more as you'll get a big discount.

For no reason should you let your policy lapse..It will sentence you to high premiums for a considerable length of time. It's easy for this to happen to some folks when they are switching to another insurance provider.

Don't terminate your old policy until the new one is fully operational and you'll not make this costly mistake. As simple as this may seem, a lot of folks are bearing the burden of exorbitant rates because of this silly little oversight.

"Pimping your ride" does NOT help if you want lower rates. Things like changing your tires to bigger ones than specified by the manufacturer, adding equipment that will increase your car's horse-power will cost you a lot more.

Folks who ignorantly buy either collision or comprehensive coverage or both for an old car that is not considered a classic are simply pay far more than should. Your car's Kelly Blue Book value at the time of a claim (and not the value of the car when you bought it) is what determines what you'll get from your insurer. Therefore, you'll get nothing if the book says your car is worth nothing at the time of a claim.

Do the smart thing and remove either of them from your auto policy. If you do this you'll pay a lot less.

As you take other steps to lower your auto rates, here's something you can do to receive lower rates now: Visit good quotes sites and get quotes.

Visit a minimum of five of such sites for the best chance at finding dirt cheap auto insurance. It's free, quick and easy. Make sure you give your correct details as you complete the questionnaires on each site. All you have to do next is just pick the insurance company that represents the best price/value from the quotes you receive.
