Frequently asked questions about bundling home and auto insurance

Is bundling home and auto insurance right for everyone in Alabama?

Bundling your insurance policies can save you money and add convenience. With a single insurer, you’ll have one point of contact and easy access to all your coverage details on one website.

While bundling can be a good deal, it’s not always the right choice. Sometimes, a company may offer great auto insurance rates but have higher prices for homeowners insurance, so it might be worth looking elsewhere for your homeowners coverage.

Also, some insurers might provide the right coverage you need for one type of insurance but not for the other.

Instead of relying on a bundle, it’s worth checking out other options to ensure you get the best deal.

Remember when buying insurance that you’re doing so to protect your most valuable assets, says Christine O’Brien, president of the Insurance Council of New Jersey. Take the time to learn about policy limits and coverages and get several quotes.

How can you switch to a home and auto bundle in Alabama?

Bundling your policies is a quick process. When one of your insurance policies is up for renewal, you can decide to bundle your car and homeowners insurance with the same company.

You don’t have to wait until renewal to bundle. If you cancel any of your policies early, you’ll likely get a refund for the months you won’t be covered.

Remember not to cancel your old policy until your new coverage is in place to avoid any gaps in coverage.
