How to save on car insurance in Oregon

Car insurance rates in Oregon are not overly expensive, on average, but there are ways you may be able to save even more money and earn a lower premium. Here are some suggestions for getting cheap car insurance:

  • Get several quotes: To find the best rate for your coverage preferences, get multiple car insurance quotes from different carriers. This way, you can evaluate coverage options and pricing to find the right carrier.
  • Improve your credit score: If you have a poor credit score, you may pay a higher car insurance premium. Raising your credit score, even by a few points, can help you get a lower rate.
  • Pay your premium in full: Paying your premium upfront and in full may help you get a cheaper rate, if you can afford the out-of-pocket cost.
  • Take a defensive driver course: Many insurance companies offer a discount to drivers who complete an approved defensive driver or driver safety course.
  • Raise your deductibles: Increasing your comprehensive and collision deductibles can lower your premium. Just make sure you can afford a higher deductible if you need to file a claim.
  • Switch carriers: If you find a different insurance company that can offer you a better deal, you can usually switch carriers during your policy period. You’ll want to check if your current insurer has any fees associated with policy cancellation.
