Compare and contrast to get your best military discounted auto insurance rates
If you're in the military, you may be on a tight budget. These days, who isn't?
While cost of living in the United States has been rising, your military pay and benefits may have not kept up.
But you're military smart and you can make your budget go further with discounts that many companies offer to soldiers and their families. Smart businesses know that military men and women make good customers and offer discounts to entice business their way.
One such company offering auto insurance discounts to soldiers and their families is Geico Direct.
Geico started as an insurer for noncommissioned-officers and high-grade government employees. They now offer coverage to practically everyone, but they still pay special attention to their military customers, to whom they offer special discounts and programs.
According to Geico, if you are on active duty, retired from the military, or a member of the National Guard or Reserves, you may be eligible for a discount of up to 15 percent on your total insurance premium.
There are also special discounts for troops deployed into special areas designated by the DoD as imminent-danger-pay areas.
In addition, if your duties require you to store your vehicle for 30 days or more, some auto insurance companies can suspend or reduce your insurance coverage. This benefit can save you money, along with providing you with a way to maintain continuity of coverage, which is important to insurers who prefer customers who maintain uninterrupted insurance coverage for a certain period of time.
Some military auto insurance discounts also apply to members of professional military associations and organizations, including:
- Air Force Association
- Fleet Reserve Association
- Navy Federal Credit Union
- Marine Corps League
- Association of the United States Army
- Air Force Sergeants Association
- National Military Family Association
- Pentagon Federal Credit Union
- U.S. Coast Guard Chief Petty Officers Association.
Compare and contrast - it's part of the process for securing the best discounted military auto insurance among all the many providers to suit your military needs.
