Moving
Moving can be stressful under the best of circumstances. Especially if you are moving across the country or to somewhere you are unfamiliar with. If you are planning on moving to Auburn, we can help alleviate some of that stress.
In addition to all the obvious concerns that come with a big move (finding a home, getting your belongings to your new home, finding schools for your children), don’t overlook your Auburn insurance needs. First you will want to make sure you are covered as you get to your new home and then that once you have established your new home, you have found a agency that you trust to handle all your insurance needs.
Moving Truck Rental Insurance
Most Moving Truck Rental companies will offer temporary insurance coverage for you as you move your belongings to your new home. They will go over all the details with you as you sign the rental agreement. This will generally cover you in case you are in an accident on your trip.
If you go with the option of getting insurance through the rental company, you may end up over paying or even paying for coverage that you already have through your regular auto policy. Simply check with your insurance agent to ascertain what coverage you have available to you. You may already be covered under your auto policy, and your renter’s or homeowner’s policy will probably protect your belongings, even in transit.
It is always a safe choice to check with your agent before you sign a rental agreement with a moving company so you know exactly what you need. It may be that you can get a better deal through the rental company as their insurance is specifically tailored for rental trucks but it is best to make an informed decision so you know that you are getting exactly what you need to have peace of mind as you make this big transition.
Contact Resource Insurance Group for a thorough review of your situation. We can give you peace of mind about your insurance coverage.
So you’re all settled into your new home, now what?
If you are moving to Auburn from another state, your insurance will probably change. Rates and insurance laws differ from state to state so you need to prepare for some adjustment. Your auto and homeowner’s policies will need to be reevaluated to ensure that everything is up-to-date.
Auto Insurance
If you are planning on switching agents because you are new to Auburn, you can talk to you agent about transferring your policies to our Resource Insurance Group office. It will be easier for you to have an agent that is nearby who can quickly and easily meet your needs and who you can call on at anytime to answer questions.
If you are simply moving to a new area within Auburn, be sure to call our office to register your new address. Even within the state your rates may change from one area to the next so be prepared for some adjustments in your policies.
Homeowners Insurance
Transferring your Auburn homeowner’s insurance policy is just as simple. If you already own a home, be sure to keep your insurance intact until the house changes ownership. Once that has occurred, simply bring your former policy to our office and an agent can get you a policy with the same or similar coverage.
If you are renting or storing your belongings in a commercial storage unit, simply check with your agent to find out what coverage you have and how best to proceed from there. Your belongings may be covered under your existing policy or you may choose to get a policy through your storage unit. Either way, our agents at Resource Insurance Group can help you determine what is best for your situation.
