More Protection from Risks

VIU by HUB brokers work with customers to build better insurance policies. In addition to higher limits in the required areas of coverage, drivers in Benton County can also customize insurance policies to cover collision costs, additional liability or policy features such as glass coverage, electronic equipment and roadside assistance. Talk to a VIU by HUB broker about any of the following policy options or other forms of coverage:

• Agreed value coverage: Agreed value policies cover vehicles for a set amount agreed upon by owners and insurers. Ask a broker about the best way to insure classic or upgraded vehicles.
• Replacement value coverage: A replacement value policy will cover the full cost of replacing a vehicle. Most auto insurance policies are actual cash value and factor in depreciation, which reduces payouts.
• Personal umbrella policies: A personal umbrella policy extends personal liability coverage above and beyond car insurance in Corvallis. Even if an auto policy has higher liability limits than the state mandated minimums, an umbrella policy can provide more protection.
• Full glass coverage: Customize an auto insurance policy with benefits that make maintaining your vehicle more affordable. Most full glass coverage does not require policyholders to pay a deductible when replacing damaged auto glass.
• Towing and labor: A comprehensive Corvallis, OR car insurance policy may also cover the cost of having a vehicle towed. Discuss this option with a broker to determine whether paying higher premiums can lower out-of-pocket costs in the event of an emergency.
