Best WA car insurance for bundling home and auto

Homeownership comes with enough surprises already. The right auto policy should do the opposite, providing financial protection for your household when accidents happen and bills get messy. That’s one reason many homeowners consider bundling auto and home insurance, which can simplify what you manage and open up discounts.

Even if you keep home and auto with different insurers, though, homeownership may still earn you benefits. Some carriers reward it with special discounts or higher coverage limits that better suit homeowner needs.

In Washington, Jerry sees most home-owning customers choosing Progressive, GEICO and National General 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.

In Washington, adding a teen driver to your policy can push premiums up quickly, and the increase often catches families off guard because it doesn’t always reflect your own history as a safe driver. But you can help mitigate this increase by shopping around and comparing all of your coverage options.

Jerry has helped WA families with teen drivers save an average of annually, most often with Progressive, Dairyland and National General.

Best car insurance for WA college students

College can turn a “set it and forget it” policy into a moving target. A driver might change addresses, drive fewer miles, or keep a car on campus for part of the year and at home for the rest. If your policy doesn’t keep up, you can end up overpaying, underprotected or both.

Jerry has helped 2,218 college students in Washington find affordable coverage that still protects them whether they’re on or off campus, driving home for the summer or something in between. Progressive, National General and GEICO are the top choices for Jerry college students in this state. Here’s what each carrier offers and why it stands out.

Best WA car insurance for drivers with violations

One mistake on the road can change your insurance pricing for years. Tickets, at-fault accidents and DUIs often trigger “high-risk” rates and can narrow the list of carriers willing to write your policy. Still, you have options, and you don’t have to overpay just because your record isn’t spotless.

Jerry has helped 1,162 Washington drivers with violations find coverage this past year at affordable prices. We also monitor rates and flag the right time to shop again once those violations age out, so you can potentially save even more.

In fact, many Jerry drivers with violations end up with Progressive, National General and GEICO — carriers that are often more flexible with Washington drivers who have violations on their record.

Car insurance options for WA military families

Whether you’re active-duty, reserve, guard or veteran, military life shapes how you drive, where you keep your car and how often you move. Jerry has helped Washington military families find coverage that can keep up with deployments, PCS moves and everything in between.

If you qualify for military-focused insurers, they should always be on your shortlist. At the same time, many standard insurers offer solid 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

Some companies are built specifically for military members and their families. These include USAA, Navy Federal, Armed Forces Insurance and similar providers.
If you’re eligible, they at least belong on your short list. That’s because they’re designed around deployments, PCS orders and frequent moves. These insurers often have storage or reduced-use options when your car sits on base or at home during deployment. Additionally, their customer service teams understand military pay, orders and timelines in a way civilian-focused insurers sometimes don’t.

Because of how these insurers work, Jerry can’t always show live quotes or internal ratings for them. If you qualify, the smart move is to:
1. Use Jerry to see how strong your options are with standard insurers, then
2. Get a direct quote from one or more military-only insurers and compare.

That way, you’re not guessing. You’re stacking their offer against real, competitive market pricing.

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 WA 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 Washington.
