I am considering bundling/combining my home/auto.motorcycle insurances and would appreciate input from those who have done this.

I have been a customer for auto and motorcycle insurance with Progressive for a long time, but have my home owners ins with Nationwide.

My homeowners insurance ( Nationwide) is being increased this year by a fair amount and my agent tells me i can save about $200.00 on the H/O policy if i switch/bundle my auto & motorcycle policies to them along with the homeowners policy.

Being a fairly competent consumer i called Progressive to shop the rates. They tell me a number $$ that is within a few $$ of the rate Nationwide is asking.

I had them both quote on the exact same coverage for all policies.

Sooo ????
Who has experience with this thing and what did you choose to do ???

I'd call a couple Independent Insurance salesmen and ask them what they can do for you. If you call Progressive, they'll give you only their rates. Same situation if you call any of the other big name insurance companies like State Farm, GEICO, etc. They won't tell you that you can get a better deal elsewhere. They'll just give you their prices.

An Independent Insurance salesman will represent several companies. He'll come up with a package deal that will usually do better than you'll find elsewhere.
