Auto insurance – it’s the product that nobody wants, everybody needs, and we hope we'll never have to use. But, hey, if you’re gonna pay for it, you may as well make sure it’s a reliable product from a reputable provider, otherwise what’s the point?

Today we're picking the brains of Alink Insurance about how you can keep your premiums lower with a local broker.

For impartial guidance on affordable policies for automotive cover and access to a panel of trusted providers, a broker is a great bet. Alink highlights how reputable brokers gather together the most suitable insurance products that meet state requirements and are tailored to your unique circumstances.

Alink explains that a well-structured automotive insurance policy reduces the high out-of-pocket costs that you can face in the aftermath of an accident, protects you and other policyholders against the financial consequences of damage to persons or property, and ensures you avoid the fines and penalties levied by the state for non-compliant cover.

They suggest going with a provider who offers flexible payment options to help spread coverage costs. Look for concessions for safe drivers and multi-car policies too. And don’t forget to review your policy. Alink, for example, reviews all policies to ensure their clients are getting the best value for money.

As a family-owned business with roots in Utah County, Alink Insurance highlights the benefits of partnering with local insurance companies for geo-specific coverage. For example, residents face an increased risk of motor accidents due to the region’s unpredictable weather while Utah’s growing population is affecting traffic density which also impacts the likelihood of incidents and claims.

Insurance is expensive enough so don’t pay any more than you need to. Alink’s tips on common mistakes include: Don’t choose a product based on price alone. Don’t forget to take account of life changes such as moving house or adding a teen driver to a policy and taking the time to understand your deductibles.

An Alink spokesperson says, “Low deductibles suit drivers who file claims; high deductibles suit careful drivers. We typically recommend $500–$1,000 for collision and comprehensive in both states.”

The company recommends bundling policies with the same provider – for example home, car, business, and life insurance. You’ll often get concessionary premiums for bundling multiple products.

According to the Alink website, “When you combine Home and Auto Insurance, you may also qualify for extras like a single deductible (when your home and car are damaged as a result of the same event), the ability to manage your insurance with one access point, and saving money with discounts for each policy.”

So, if you’re ready to renew your auto insurance or insurance for anything else, consider reaching out to your local Saratoga Springs broker!
