You can rest easy knowing that your agent has the knowledge and resources to protect what matters most to you.
Choice – you’ll have many options
Because they aren’t limited to products from any one company, independent agents are able to create a unique insurance package specific to your needs and budget.
Advice – an expert on your side
Is an umbrella policy right for you? Do you have enough uninsured motorist coverage? Does your jewelry require a special rider on your homeowners policy? An independent agent can answer all of your insurance questions - even those you didn't know you had. - Along with offering the best combination of value and protection, independent agents work to improve the lives of those around them:
- They build stronger communities. Agents are business owners and employees, but above all, they are members of the community. Many of them make an impact by sharing their time and resources with local nonprofit organizations. Safeco Insurance is proud to recognize these independent agencies and amplify their charitable efforts with three community giving programs.
- They build long-term relationships. Three out of four people use an agent to buy insurance, according to a recent survey, and many of them stay with the same agency for years. When you work with a local insurance agency, you deal with people you know - and people who know you.
