Auto-Owners

Auto-Owners is known for its affordable rates, excellent customer service and great discounts. Omaha drivers can take advantage of discounts for paying your premium on-time, bundling your policies, paying in full, getting a quote in advance and being claims-free. Auto-Owners also has several discounts specifically for student drivers, but its mobile app receives poor ratings (3.0 out of 5 on Apple and 3.3 out of 5 on Google Play).

USAA only sells insurance policies to active duty and retired military personnel and their eligible family members, which limits access for many, but the company is highly-rated by J.D. Power. USAA offers cheap average rates in Omaha, in addition to great customer service and generous savings opportunities.

Omaha insurance requirements

Car insurance in Omaha is a requirement for any driver that owns a registered vehicle. Drivers must carry at least 25/50/25 personal liability and uninsured/underinsured motorist insurance, which includes the following coverage:

  • $25,000 bodily injury liability per person
  • $50,000 bodily injury liability per accident
  • $25,000 property damage liability per accident
  • $25,000 uninsured motorist bodily injury per person
  • $50,000 uninsured motorist bodily injury per accident
  • $25,000 underinsured motorist bodily injury per person
  • $50,000 underinsured motorist bodily injury per accident

Minimum coverage insurance is the cheapest policy available in Omaha. However, spending more for a full coverage policy might be worth the added cost to protect your finances. Full coverage insurance offers higher potential liability limits in the event of an accident, plus it covers your vehicle. Drivers who lease or finance their car are often required to carry full coverage insurance until their loan is repaid.

How to get and keep the cheapest car insurance in Omaha

Finding the cheapest car insurance in Omaha may be one task on your financial to-do list, but keeping the great rates once you lock them in is another. Keep the following in mind as you try to maintain affordable rates for car insurance.

  • Compare multiple providers. Not only is comparing quotes from multiple providers something every driver should do to save the most money on a brand new policy, but it is an ideal way to save at any time. Shopping around shows you how much the rates can vary from one provider to another — and possibly save you money by switching.
  • Keep a clean driving record. Not only does maintaining a clean driving record keep you and others safe on the road, it helps you save money too. A clean driving record may give you access to additional discounts and helps you possibly qualify for the lowest rates offered by the provider.

Frequently asked questions

    • The best car insurance company is different for every driver. It depends on personal criteria, like your budget, the type of coverage you need and what discounts you can qualify for. Spend some time researching insurance providers and comparing quotes to figure out which company can offer you the lowest rate for the type and amount of coverage you want.
    • The average cost of car insurance in Omaha is $1,598 for a full coverage policy and $449 for a minimum coverage policy. Car insurance quotes in Omaha are more expensive than the average rate in Nebraska but are cheaper than the United States national average rate, which is currently $1,771 per year for full coverage.
    • Drivers in Omaha are required to carry at least 25/50/25 personal liability and uninsured/underinsured motorist insurance. However, many drivers upgrade to a full coverage policy, which includes coverage for their vehicle. Insurance companies also recommend that most drivers increase their coverage limits to get more financial protection in the event of an at-fault accident in Nebraska.
    • You can use Bankrate’s exclusive search tool to find and compare auto insurance quotes from today’s top providers. Once you are ready to purchase a policy, there is some information that you will need to provide to finalize the policy. Have your vehicle identification number (VIN), driver’s license and social security number ready.

Methodology

Bankrate utilizes Quadrant Information Services to analyze 2022 rates for all ZIP codes and carriers in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. Rates are weighted based on the population density in each geographic region. Quoted rates are based on a 40-year-old male and female driver with a clean driving record, good credit and the following full coverage limits:

  • $100,000 bodily injury liability per person
  • $300,000 bodily injury liability per accident
  • $50,000 property damage liability per accident
  • $100,000 uninsured motorist bodily injury per person
  • $300,000 uninsured motorist bodily injury per accident
  • $500 collision deductible
  • $500 comprehensive deductible

To determine minimum coverage limits, Bankrate used minimum coverage that meets each state’s requirements. Our base profile drivers own a 2020 Toyota Camry, commute five days a week and drive 12,000 miles annually.
