Cheapest home and auto insurance bundle in Wyoming

Combining home and auto insurance is a simple way to reduce insurance rates on both coverages. If you get home and car insurance from the same company, you may be eligible for a discount on both policies, which lessens both your home and auto insurance premiums.

When bundling, insurance carriers provide a discount to policyholders who take multiple lines of coverage with them, says Clayton Fischer, an agent with Blue Marlin Insurance in Coral Gables, Florida. For instance, he says, insurance companies may offer exclusive options like 12-month auto policies–as opposed to six-month auto policies—when bundled with homeowners insurance.

"Biggest perk of the 12-month auto policy is preventing rate increases every six months," he says. "It’s also a feature to help policyholders have a single point of contact regarding insurance coverage."

Many insurance companies in Wyoming provide discounts for bundling, but the discounts and rates can vary considerably, sometimes by hundreds of dollars. So, it's critical to evaluate the overall savings and individual policy rates to find the best bundling discount for auto and home insurance in Wyoming.

How does bundling home and car insurance work?

The concept of bundling is pretty straightforward. You buy more than one type of insurance from the same company and, in exchange for the increased business, the insurance company may give you a discount. And there’s an added benefit to the insurer in offering bundles: Customers who bundle are more likely to renew with their insurer.

You typically get discounts on both car insurance and home insurance when you bundle coverage. The discount isn’t equal for each coverage type. Each provider has its own discount formulas. Companies may offer a bigger discount on one than the other.

The pros and cons of home and auto insurance bundles

The biggest benefit of bundling your home and car insurance is a cheaper premium.

But keep in mind that you don't always save money by bundling. You could find an insurer with a low price on one of the two policies, which could result in better savings than a bundle. Here’s how that works:

• Paying $1,000 for car insurance from one insurer and $1,200 for home insurance from another adds up to $2,200.
• Let's say, however, you decide to get your home insurance from your car insurer. The price is $1,500 for the new home insurance policy; that's $300 more than what you pay right now.
• The new overall bundle rate would see a $300 increase, totaling $2,500.
• You would need a bundling discount of $400 or so, at minimum, to decrease the total bundle rate by enough money to save when compared to the price you currently pay for the separate policies.

Remember that rates on bundles aren't always lower in absolute terms. This is why you should carefully compare what you pay for separate policies now to quotes on home and car insurance bundles.

Should you bundle home and auto insurance in Wyoming?

Before signing up for an auto and home bundle, shopping around is important. Bundling your car and homeowners insurance has many advantages; you only have to deal with a single company and with a single bill, and you typically get a discount on both policies. However, bundling isn’t always the best deal.

Some companies have cheap car insurance rates but less competitive home insurance rates, and vice versa. You might pay less overall by choosing two different companies for your insurance.

Shop around and evaluate Wyoming car insurance rates individually and with a bundling discount to ensure you’re getting the best deal before you purchase.
