“I was wondering if getting online car insurance quotes is a good way to get multiple auto insurance quotes so I can save money?”

A reader submitted the question above about getting online auto insurance quotes…

Yes! I think getting online car insurance quotes is THE best way to shop for car insurance because its fast and easy. Just know that almost all car insurance companies offer the feature of getting online quotes now so its not like you are dealing with some weird fly-by-night company. Make sure you are comparing apples with apples, and not apples and oranges though. Get it? That means you should have a copy of your current car insurance policy right in front of you as you check off the kind of coverage that you want with the new company. Remember: You won’t get a true and accurate car insurance comparison if you don’t get a quote for the exact same coverage that you currently have. Its always easy to change your policy anyway you want to later. Also, don’t cancel your old policy until AFTER your new policy has started! Once your new online car insurance policy is in effect, and after you cancel the old policy, then at that point you can expect to get a check in the mail for the pro-rated balance owed to you.
