Insurance
· Shop insurance policy

If you've been with the same insurance company for a while, you could be missing savings that another company would be willing to offer you. As you approach your renewal date, or are just curious what the market would be for your business, there's no harm in seeing what others would have your price be at.

Lower coverage
If you drive an older car and are comfortable in your ability to drive safely, you may want to explore going from collision or comprehensive car insurance to third party liability. Third party liability is the minimum insurance one can have on their vehicle legally in Canada.

· Bundle

Combining your auto policy (https://www.surex.com/insurance/auto-car) with your home policy (https://www.surex.com/insurance/home) often results in added savings. A great reason to get your insurance through Surex (https://www.surexdirect.com/) is – with up to 10 companies vying for your business – we can bundle your lowest home insurance policy with your lowest auto insurance policy, even if the offers are from different companies.

· Avoid claims & tickets

The best shortcut to cheaper car insurance is to actually be a good driver. The more comfortable a company feels insuring you, the lower your premiums are going to be. If you've gone six years claims free and three years tickets free, now is a great time to see how your improved driving habits can lower your insurance rates.

· Credit score 650+

Unfortunately, non-payments and missed payments happen far too often in the insurance industry. All companies seek clients that will always pay their bills. Having a credit score of 650 and above qualifies you for a ''good credit'' discount, which can save you up to 25% on your insurance policy.
