How to get and keep the cheapest car insurance in West Palm Beach

Finding the cheapest car insurance companies in West Palm Beach is one thing, but keeping the cheapest rates is another. Keep the following in mind as you are searching for the most affordable rates — and trying to keep those rates in check:

  • Comparison is key. Drivers may not realize how much premiums can vary from one insurance provider to another. By shopping around and comparing multiple quotes, you more easily see which one offers the lowest rates for your needs, or has the best coverage options. Consider exploring car insurance quotes online from multiple providers every so often to ensure you are getting the best deal for your situation.
  • Safety matters. Maintaining a clean driving record and remaining accident-free not only keeps you safer on the road, it helps save money on your premiums. You can save by earning more favorable rates with your insurance provider, plus qualifying for additional discounts, such as claims-free and safe driving discounts.

Frequently asked questions

    • The best car insurance company is determined by factors most important to you. While finding cheap car insurance companies may be a top priority for some, others may focus on selecting a company based on customer service reviews or the financial strength of the carrier. Ultimately, finding a provider that balances all your needs by comparing multiple ones is the most effective way to find the best car insurance company.
    • Almost all major car insurance providers allow you the option to obtain a quote online, but not all providers write car insurance in Florida. To determine availability and get the most accurate quote, have your personal information readily available, including your driver’s license number for everyone on the policy, vehicle identification numbers and vehicle information. Selecting the appropriate coverage is important, too, and you may find it helpful to review all options prior to making a selection. Providing this information up front allows you to see the cost of premiums so you can perform your own comparisons.
    • Car insurance rates in every state are based on a variety of factors, and the cost of car insurance in West Palm Beach is heavily influenced by its congested traffic, high accident rate and a high average influx of tourist drivers. Florida also faces a number of risks related to climate and weather, and the state ranks in sixth place on the Insurance Information Institute’s list of the highest percentage of uninsured motorists as of 2019. While these rating factors are out of your control, you can focus on other factors to try and help keep affordable rates, such as maintaining a good driving history and shopping for car insurance discounts.
    • Bankrate utilizes Quadrant Information Services to analyze 2023 rates for ZIP codes and carriers in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. 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 coverages that meet each state’s requirements. Our sample drivers own a 2021 Toyota Camry, commute five days a week and drive 12,000 miles annually.

      These are sample rates and should be used for comparative purposes only. Your quotes may be different.

    • Our 2023 Bankrate Score considers variables our insurance editorial team determined impacts policyholders’ experiences with an insurance company. These rating factors include a robust assessment of each company’s product availability, financial strength ratings, online capabilities and customer and claims support accessibility. Each factor was added to a category, and these categories were weighted in a tiered approach to analyze how companies perform in key customer-impacting categories.

      Like our previous Bankrate Scores, each category was assigned a metric to determine performance, and the weighted sum adds up to a company’s total Bankrate Score — out of 5 points. This year, our 2023 scoring model provides a more comprehensive view, indicating when companies excel across several key areas and better highlighting where they fall short.

      • Tier 1 (Cost & ratings): To determine how well auto and home insurance companies satisfy these priorities, 2023 quoted premiums from Quadrant Information Services (if available), as well as any of the latest third-party agency ratings from J.D. Power, AM Best and the NAIC, were analyzed.
      • Tier 2 (Coverage & savings): We assessed companies’ coverage options and availability to help policyholders find a provider that balances cost with coverage. Additionally, we evaluated each company’s discount options listed on its website.
      • Tier 3 (Support): To encompass the many ways an auto insurance company can support policyholders, we analyzed avenues of customer accessibility along with community support. This analysis incorporated additional financial strength ratings from S&P and Moody’s and factored a company’s corporate sustainability efforts.
