START WITH THE QUESTION THAT MATTERS
Can an Independent Insurance Agent Beat GEICO?
Sometimes. An independent agent may find an option with a lower rate or coverage that better fits your needs, but there is no company that's automatically cheaper or better for every driver.
The advantage of an independent agent is having more than one company to consider.
When you request a quote directly from one insurance company, you see what that company can offer you. Chastain Insurance Group can shop among more than 25 insurance companies based on your information and coverage needs.
What Makes One Insurance Option Better Than Another?
Price matters, but a better option isn't necessarily the one with the lowest premium.
Look at the complete policy:
- Coverage and liability limits
- Comprehensive and collision deductibles
- Available discounts
- Optional coverages you want
- Total premium
- Home and auto options if you're bundling
A lower rate is only meaningful when you understand what you're getting for the price.

ONE COMPANY VS. MULTIPLE OPTIONS
GEICO vs. a Local Independent Insurance Agency
GEICO is an insurance company. Chastain Insurance Group is an independent insurance agency.
That creates a different shopping experience. If you go directly to GEICO, you're evaluating GEICO's available insurance options.
With Chastain, you can look at available options from multiple insurance companies through one local agency.
Do I Have to Leave GEICO to Work With an Independent Agent?
No. You can compare your current GEICO policy with other available options before deciding whether a change makes sense.

COMPARE THE POLICY, NOT JUST THE PRICE
How Does Your GEICO Quote Compare?
Putting two premiums side by side doesn't tell you whether the policies are actually comparable.
Start with the coverage limits. Check what each policy provides for liability coverage and uninsured or underinsured motorists. Then look at your comprehensive and collision deductibles and any optional coverage, such as rental reimbursement or roadside assistance.
Available discounts can also vary by insurance company and customer. Once you know you're looking at similar coverage, compare the total premium. A quote that costs less but reduces your coverage or increases your deductible may not be the alternative you're looking for.

WHEN YOUR INSURANCE NEEDS ANOTHER LOOK
Why Consider Switching From GEICO?
People shop for new insurance for different reasons. You don't have to be dissatisfied with GEICO to find out whether another company fits your current situation better.
It may be worth comparing when:
The reason to consider switching isn't simply that another company exists. It's that your circumstances, rate or coverage needs may have changed enough to make another look worthwhile.

ANSWERS BEFORE YOU MAKE A CHANGE
Questions About GEICO Insurance Alternatives
Who is better than GEICO for car insurance in Springfield, MO?
There isn't one insurance company that's better than GEICO for every Springfield driver. Rates and available coverage depend on the individual driver, household, vehicles and policy. Comparing similar coverage from multiple companies can show you which available option fits your situation.
Can an independent insurance agent beat my GEICO rate?
Possibly, but a lower rate can't be guaranteed. Chastain can compare your current coverage with available options from the insurance companies we work with. The result depends on your individual insurance information and the coverage being quoted.
Can I compare GEICO with other companies without switching?
Yes. Getting quotes lets you see your options. You decide afterward whether staying with your current company or changing companies makes sense.
Is Progressive cheaper than GEICO?
Not for everyone. Each company evaluates and prices customers differently. Comparing Progressive and GEICO using similar coverage is more useful than assuming one company will always cost less.
Is an independent agent better than buying directly from GEICO?
The biggest difference is choice. Buying directly from GEICO lets you evaluate GEICO's available options. An independent agency can help you consider options from multiple insurance companies it represents.
Should I compare home insurance at the same time?
If you own a home, it can make sense to compare both policies. Looking at your home and auto insurance together can give you a better view of the overall coverage and cost.
