What Are Teacher Car Insurance Discounts?
Simply put, if you’re a teacher, some insurance companies wanna offer you special discounts on your car insurance. Sometimes this is done through your union.
Other times it may be through the school district. Either way, a quick chat with your boss or HR should set you on the right path. An insurance agent will handle the rest.
How Do I Get Teacher Insurance Discounts?
Just raise your hand. Okay, maybe not that easy, but close. Teacher discounts are a kind of group discount, one of the simplest insurance discounts to get. And here’s how you get them:
- Ask around the water cooler: You’ll have the best luck starting with your boss, union rep or HR department. Ask if there’s a discount program with a particular insurance company. If yes, you’re in. If not, don’t worry, just proceed to the next step.
- Have a heart-to-heart with an agent: If you know you’ll get a discount with a certain company, say that up front. If you’re unsure or you know there’s no special discount offered, ask them to look for you. Some companies may offer a general teacher discount as a thank you for your service.
- Compare wisely: Your agent may provide you with a few quotes to choose from. If that’s the case, don’t automatically go for the cheapest option—mid-range options could offer more discounts and better coverage also. Weigh the pros and cons of each carefully, pick one, and then celebrate. You deserve it.
