car insurance military discounts

What do I do about car insurance when I join the military?

Do car insurance companies offer discounts on car insurance to those enlisted in the military. I’m going to be going off to the air force soon and I’ve decided i’m definately not taking my car. If I happen not to sell it either and just leave it at home, how do car insurance companies help with that? Do they give discounts to those away on military duty?

Call your company and talk to them. Several companies that I know of offer lower rates while you’re deployed. But they all have different details so it pays to call around and check. I know for Geico you can drop the insurance cost a ton but you can basically only start the car a couple times a month to keep the battery charged. If you move over 20 miles or so a month you have to pay back the higher rate or loose your insurance.
