☂️ Do You Have Enough Liability Coverage?

Many people don't realize that a serious accident or liability claim could exceed the limits of their auto, home, or other insurance policies. That's where an Umbrella Policy can help.

An umbrella policy provides an extra layer of liability protection above your existing coverage, helping protect your savings, assets, and future earnings when the unexpected happens.

Whether it's an auto accident, an injury claim on your property, or another covered liability situation, an umbrella policy can provide valuable peace of mind.

At Shelter Insurance, we can help you determine if an umbrella policy is right for your situation and make sure you have the protection you need.

📞 Let's talk about adding an extra layer of protection for you and your family.

🦌🚗 Deer season is just around the corner!

As deer become more active, especially at dawn and dusk, the chances of an unexpected encounter on the road increase. Stay alert, slow down in areas marked with deer crossing signs, and always watch for deer traveling in groups.

If a deer jumps out, remember: it's usually safer to brake firmly and stay in your lane than to swerve.

Drive safe this season, and make sure you know what your auto insurance covers before you need it! 🍂

What Does Comprehensive Coverage Cover? 🚗🛡️

Many people think auto insurance only helps after an accident, but Comprehensive Coverage is designed to protect your vehicle from many of life's unexpected events that happen other than a collision.

✅ Hail damage
✅ Theft
✅ Vandalism
✅ Falling objects (like tree limbs)
✅ Fire
✅ Flooding and storm damage
✅ Hitting a deer or other animal
✅ Broken windshields (depending on your policy)

Think of comprehensive coverage as protection from those "I never saw that coming" moments.

Not sure if you have comprehensive coverage or what your deductible is? I'd be happy to review your policy and help you understand your coverage.
