Harrisonburg drivers pay a monthly average of $145 for full-coverage insurance — less than the Virginia state average of $173 per month for full coverage and the national monthly full-coverage average of $173.

Harrisonburg is located in the Shenandoah Valley, an urban area with a small-town feel. The surrounding mountains encourage many outdoor activities, and you can walk to many destinations. The city’s smaller population of just over 51,000 means less congested highways, which could contribute to its lower car insurance rates.

Here’s what you should know about comparing quotes and finding affordable coverage in the Friendly City.

Quick Facts
  • State Farm, Auto-Owners, and USAA have the cheapest car insurance in Harrisonburg.

  • Harrisonburg drivers pay a yearly average of $1,743 for full-coverage insurance.

  • Harrisonburg drivers pay a yearly average of $1,130 for a liability-only policy.

3 of the cheapest car insurance companies in Harrisonburg

The best insurance company will vary depending on your driving history, vehicle, and financial situation. Most insurance companies use similar criteria to determine car insurance rates, but each values this information differently.

If you’re in the market for auto insurance, the best thing you can do is get quotes from at least three different insurers. Here are a few of the best insurance companies for different types of drivers. The rates shown in the table below are for the state of Virginia.

  • Our editorial team spent more than 350 hours developing the Insurify Quality (IQ) Score and scoring insurance companies. The IQ Score objectively analyzes and calculates a score for insurers using more than 15 crucial criteria. The team weighted criteria by importance to the consumer — factors such as customer reviews and affordability influence the score more than availability and third-party ratings.

    We rate each company on a 1 to 10 scale based on five categories: financial ratings, customer satisfaction, affordability, customer support and transparency, and availability. Insurify updates ratings once a year or as more recent information becomes available.

    • Third-party financial ratings: Insurify uses data from AM Best, S&P, Moody’s, and more to compare insurance companies’ credit and ability to pay out future claims.
    • Customer satisfaction: To calculate this score, Insurify analyzed more than 55,000 customer reviews across 155 car insurance companies. We also consider third-party ratings from J.D. Power, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, and Trustpilot.
    • Affordability: Our data scientists analyzed more than 90 million real-time auto insurance rates from our partners across the U.S., as well as available discounts, to calculate an affordability score.
    • Customer support and transparency: This measures coverage options, ease of claims filing, and the insurer's transparency surrounding discounts, coverages, and claims process.
    • Availability and reach: Insurify scores availability and reach by identifying the number of states in which insurers offer coverage and company size by market share.

Pros
  • Above-average J.D. Power customer satisfaction rating in the Central region

  • Offers rideshare insurance

Cons
  • Typically have to work with a State Farm agent to buy coverage

  • Doesn’t offer gap insurance

Great service and coverage for their customers. They have been my auto insurer since 1978. They have covered every claim I have submitted. I have a 20-year-old Miata. A couple of years ago, the decayed convertible top was torn away when a storm came through. Over the years, it had been getting noisier and noisier in the car from wind blowing in through the tiny holes in the top. My wife suggested I try Geico before I paid out of pocket to replace the top. Much to my surprise, they covered the replacement. Very recently, I rented a car from Avis in New Orleans which had a number of scratches and dings when I got the car. I did not take photos at the time of the rental, but did get a walk-around from Avis noting the areas of damage at the time of rental. A couple of weeks after the return, Avis tried to charge me $5K for damages. I handed it off to Geico and they covered it. I don't know if they paid anything but I did not. There is, however, another side to Geico. My sister, who does not use Geico, was hit by someone with Geico. They jerked her around endlessly. She hates the company. Since I am a long-term customer, I am probably overpaying. I recently checked other companies and found their rates significantly lower. I haven't changed though.

How to get the cheapest car insurance in Harrisonburg

Multiple individual rating factors affect the cost of auto insurance, including your driving record, average mileage, ZIP code, and age.[1] Here are some tips for saving money on car insurance in Harrisonburg:

  • Choose a safer vehicle. Let your insurance company know if your car has an anti-theft device, automatic seat belts, or airbags. Many insurers will give you a discount for driving a safer vehicle.

  • Take advantage of low-mileage discounts. If you drive fewer than 7,500 miles per year, you may be eligible for a low-mileage discount.[2] Harrisonburg is a very walkable city, so you could save money by walking to work versus driving.

  • Complete a defensive driving course. Your driving history has a significant influence on your premiums, and a speeding ticket or at-fault accident will cause your rates to go up. Your insurer may offer you a discount for completing a defensive driving course.

  • Maintain good grades. Teen drivers pay more for auto insurance due to their lack of experience. But maintaining a B average or better could qualify teens for a good student discount.

  • Bundle your insurance. Insurance companies typically provide a significant discount for purchasing more than one policy with them. So you could save by bundling your auto and homeowners or renters insurance together, for example.

Cheapest liability-only car insurance in Harrisonburg: State Farm

If you cause a car accident, liability insurance will pay for auto repairs and medical costs for the other driver. But you can’t use liability insurance to fix your vehicle or pay for your medical expenses.[3]

Liability insurance provides the minimum coverage needed to drive in most states. Most people need more coverage than this, but carrying liability-only insurance may make sense if your vehicle is more than 10 years old and has a low market value. The average cost of liability insurance in Harrisonburg is $94 per month.

Here are the cheapest options for purchasing liability-only insurance in Harrisonburg:

Cheapest full-coverage car insurance in Harrisonburg: Auto-Owners

Full-coverage auto insurance offers more robust financial protection than what you’ll get with liability insurance. It includes liability, comprehensive, and collision insurance, so it’ll pay for the repairs for everyone involved in an auto accident. Full-coverage insurance will also protect your vehicle if it’s stolen or damaged by a falling object.

In Harrisonburg, the average cost for full-coverage car insurance is $145 per month. Here are the best options for full coverage for Harrisonburg drivers:

    Collision coverage

    Collision insurance pays for any damage to your vehicle from an at-fault accident, whether you hit another vehicle or a stationary object like a tree or light pole. It also covers rollover accidents and damage from hitting a pothole.

    Gap insurance

    If you finance or lease your vehicle and it gets stole or totaled, you may find that your loan or lease balance exceeds the amount of your claims payout. Gap insurance steps in to pay the difference between the actual cash value of your vehicle (which is what your insurer would pay for a totaled car) and any remaining balance on your lease or loan.

    Rental car reimbursement

    This coverage pays for rental coverage if your vehicle can’t be driven for more than 24 hours.

    Accident forgiveness

    Causing an accident can increase your insurance rates for several years. But if you buy optional accident forgiveness, your insurer won't raise your rates after your first at-fault accident. You generally must have a good driving record for at least three years to qualify to buy accident forgiveness, and not all insurers offer it.

Cheapest car insurance for drivers with an incident

Your driving history is one of the biggest factors influencing your insurance premiums, and the better your record, the less you’ll pay for car insurance. So if you have a history of driving incidents, like speeding tickets, driving under the influence, or at-fault accidents, you can expect to pay more for insurance.

Any premium increases due to an accident or traffic violation can three to five years, depending on the severity of the infraction and your insurer. Here’s what you might pay for liability-only car insurance with a clean record versus different types of moving violations in Harrisonburg.

Average cost of car insurance by age

Age is another factor that plays a significant role in determining your car insurance premiums. Drivers younger than 25 pay the highest rates for auto insurance. Your insurance rates start to go down around age 25 but begin to increase again at age 70.

If you fall into an age bracket with higher insurance premiums, you still have ways to save. Teen drivers and college students can save money by taking a driver’s education course or maintaining good grades, for example.

Virginia law also requires auto insurance companies to offer discounts to drivers older than 55 for completing a motor vehicle accident prevention course approved by the Department of Motor Vehicles.[2]

Virginia allows insurers to consider credit history when evaluating consumers for car insurance. So you can expect to pay less if you have a better credit history.[4]
