Best ID car insurance for bundling home and auto
If you’re a homeowner, your insurance decisions usually shift from “cheapest” to “best fit.” Your auto policy needs to match the life you’ve built, including the property, savings and people who depend on you.
Many drivers start with bundling auto and home insurance because it’s an easy way to simplify policy management and qualify for discounts. But even without bundling, homeownership can still work in your favor. Some carriers offer homeowner-specific discounts or higher coverage limits that better reflect what you’re protecting.
In Idaho, Jerry sees most home-owning customers choosing Progressive, GEICO and Safeco for their auto coverage, with or without bundling those policies. Here’s what each top carrier offers and why Jerry customers pick them most often.

Best car insurance for ID college students
When a student heads to college, insurance can get weird fast. Is the car still primarily at home, or is it now on campus? Is the student commuting, driving occasionally or taking regular trips across state lines? Those answers change what “good coverage” looks like and what you should be paying for it.
Over the last 12 months, Jerry has helped 375 college students in Idaho find affordable coverage that still protects them whether they’re on or off campus. Progressive, GEICO and National General are the top picks for college students buying through Jerry; here’s what each carrier offers and why it stands out.

Best ID car insurance for drivers with violations
Violations can really change the math on insurance premiums. A speeding ticket might sting, and an at-fault accident or DUI can hit even harder, quickly putting you in a higher-risk tier that raises premiums and limits which carriers will offer you coverage. But your record isn’t a life sentence, and your policy shouldn’t be priced like it is.
This past year, Jerry has helped 1,248 Idaho drivers with violations find coverage this past year at affordable prices. We also monitor rates and let you know when to shop again after those violations fall off your record, so you can potentially save even more.
The carriers Jerry customers with violations land with most often are Progressive, GEICO and Bristol West — companies that are typically more willing to insure Idaho drivers with violations on their record.

Car insurance options for ID military families
Whether active-duty, reservist, guard, or veteran, military life changes the way you drive, store your car and move across states. Jerry has helped Idaho military families find coverage that fits deployments, PCS moves and everything in between.
If you qualify for military-focused insurers, they should always be part of the conversation. At the same time, many standard insurers offer strong military discounts and flexible policies that Jerry can quote and compare for you.
Here’s how to think about your options.
Option A: Military-only insurers to check directly
There are insurers built specifically for military life, including USAA, Navy Federal, Armed Forces Insurance and similar providers.
If you qualify, put them on your shortlist. These companies are built around deployments, PCS orders and frequent moves, and they often offer storage or reduced-use options when your vehicle is parked during deployment. Their service teams also tend to know the realities of orders, pay and timelines, which can reduce friction.
Because these insurers operate a bit differently, Jerry can’t always show live quotes or internal ratings for them. If you qualify, the best way to compare is:
1. Use Jerry to price and compare standard insurers, then
2. Pull direct quotes from one or more military-only insurers.
That way, you’re comparing their offer against competitive market rates.
Option B: Standard insurers with strong military benefits (that Jerry can quote)
Even if you qualify for military-only insurers, it’s worth looking at national carriers that offer military discounts, manage deployments and multi-state moves well and are fully integrated with Jerry’s quoting and switching flow.
For many ID military families, GEICO, State Farm and Progressive are often part of the comparison.
1. GEICO
Best for: Discounts and practical flexibility during deployments
Why it often works well for service members:
-
Military discounts and ways to adjust coverage when you deploy or drive less.
-
24/7 support that holds up across time zones, including OCONUS.
-
App-based policy access for proof of insurance, claims and quick changes.
2. State Farm
Best for: PCS continuity and local agent support
Why it often works well:
-
One of the largest agent networks, useful if you move often.
-
Agents in many base-adjacent communities.
-
Bundling that stays simple when you add home or condo coverage.
3. Progressive
Best for: Households that need fast updates
Why it can be a good fit:
-
Strong pricing across many scenarios, including frequent movers.
-
Digital tools for updating garaging address, mileage and policy details.
-
Add-ons like rental and roadside for coverage that travels better.
Jerry can’t claim to “rank” USAA or Navy Federal against these carriers, but we can show you in minutes how GEICO, State Farm, Progressive and other standard insurers price your situation in Idaho.

How Jerry picks the best insurers in Idaho
Most sites just sort companies by price. Jerry does more.
No one wants to overpay for insurance, but Jerry knows that other factors matter, too. We use our own proprietary Jerry Score to grade each insurance company. Built from real Idaho driver data, this score evaluates insurers on:
Customer satisfaction
What customers say after they’ve filed a claim or made changes, not just when they first buy.
Value for your money
The best balance of price and protection, not just the lowest premium on the page.
Claims experience
How quickly and fairly claims get paid, especially after real crashes and storm damage.
Financial strength
Whether the company has the backing to pay out when major events hit.
Quality of coverage
How easy it is to get high liability limits, comprehensive and collision, and useful add-ons like rental reimbursement and roadside.
Product availability
Where coverage is offered, the protections available and what sort of add-ons customers can choose from to truly customize their policy.
The result? We show you a short list of options tailored to how you actually drive and what you actually own.
Drivers who switch with Jerry save an average of $54/mo on car insurance.
