You\u2019ve got a car, and so does your better half. Plus, you\u2019ve got a couple of teenagers drivers putting miles on a third. The garage and driveway look pretty crowded, but that\u2019s not your main concern. You\u2019re wondering about all of those <\/span>car insurance<\/span><\/a> policies. That\u2019s getting to be a pretty significant cost, and you\u2019ve got a lot of policy renewal dates to keep track of.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Is there a better way? There might be.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Basics of Multi-Car Insurance Coverage<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Just as it sounds, a multi-car insurance policy covers more than one non-commercial vehicle. Many insurers let Georgia families buy such coverage for as many as five cars. If you have more than five family vehicles you\u2019d like to protect with one policy, ask an independent agent to find an insurer to grant you this coverage.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Maximizing Savings for Georgia Families<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Down here in Georgia, we know that when you\u2019re buying in bulk, you\u2019re usually getting a deal. To the seller, it takes just as much time and cost to sell three of something as it does to sell one, so they\u2019ll pass some of those savings along to attract the added business.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It works much the same way with auto policies. You can often get a car insurance multi-car discount when you approach your agent with the idea of insuring multiple cars with the same carrier.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ask your agent to run the numbers, but you\u2019ll probably find that multi-vehicle insurance costs less per vehicle than buying separate policies for each car.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You can take it even further by <\/span>bundling your home and auto coverage<\/span><\/a>. Bundling is when you buy both policies from the same insurer and take advantage of discounts on both premiums. This is yet another question to ask your independent agent.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Leveraging Multi-Car Discounts and Offers<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

If your agent is on top of their game, they\u2019ll ask you \u2014 even before they quote cost figures \u2014 how many vehicles your family owns and operates. Your agent wants your business, so that means offering you the best deal possible.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With the information you provide, an independent agent can start shopping for the most affordable multi-car policy for Georgia folks who own two or more personal vehicles. That\u2019s because independent agents have relationships with several name-brand insurers and can get the most competitive rates for household car insurance.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Key Benefits of Multi-Car Insurance Deals<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

When anyone says, \u201cIt\u2019s not about the money,\u201d it\u2019s about the money. That\u2019s why the potential cost advantage of multi-car coverage was highlighted. However, there\u2019s other advantages too: time savings and efficiency.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Whenever you need to file a claim on any family vehicle in the plan, you need only refer to that one policy and call one agent. There\u2019s less paperwork and no juggling multiple renewal dates scattered throughout the year. Put that one policy on auto-renewal, and you can even forget that single date.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Insurance<\/p>\n

Tackling Common Concerns of Multi-Car Coverage<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

One policy for several vehicles can be ideal for cost, simplicity, and time savings, but it\u2019s not for everyone.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a Georgia family with teen drivers, their car might not be worth nearly as much as what you and your spouse drive. Maybe the kids\u2019 car is more than ten years old and dented enough that you won\u2019t even notice any minor damage they put on it.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For that reason, you might want to have a higher deductible on the kids on the old car and only file a claim if the damage totals the vehicle.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Then there\u2019s the fact that young drivers cost more to insure. You might opt for liability-only coverage, which tends to be the cheapest on the market. Liability won\u2019t fix your car, but it will pay for the cost to others if your young driver is found to be at fault for an accident. Meanwhile, you and your spouse? You probably want <\/span>full coverage insurance<\/span><\/a> and maybe even <\/span>collision coverage<\/span><\/a> because newer rides are worth keeping in tip-top shape.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The bottom line is you might not want identical coverage benefits on all of the family\u2019s vehicles. If you wish to vary your coverage, it might be worth purchasing separate policies. But ask your agent to crunch the numbers first. It could be that multi-car insurance is still the best deal.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
