So sorry to hear about your rates going up!
When you’re ready to cancel your renters insurance policy with
State Farm
, you can choose one of three options:
  • Call 800-782-8332 to speak with an agent
  • Mail a letter to corporate headquarters at least two weeks before the date you want to end the policy
  • Speak with an agent in person
That said, it’s good you haven’t canceled your current renters insurance policy yet. If you cancel before getting signed up for a new policy, you will have a lapse in coverage and it can raise your premiums. You also could violate your lease by canceling prematurely.
Since you’re looking for new renters insurance, consider downloading the
Jerry
app.
A licensed broker, Jerry does all the hard work of finding cheap quotes from the top name-brand insurance companies and buying new home or renters insurance. Jerry will even help you cancel your old policy.
And to ensure you always have the lowest rate, Jerry will send you new quotes every time your policy comes up for renewal, so you’re always getting the coverage you want at the best price. This level of service is why Jerry earned a 4.6/5 rating on the App Store and made it the top insurance app in the country.
