A How-to Guide on Bundling Home and Auto Insurance


Last Updated January 2026

  • Bundling insurance policies means buying multiple types of coverage — like home and auto — from the same insurer. 
  • Bundling can lead to savings, fewer bills to manage and easier policy updates. 
  • Along with homeowners and auto, you can typically bundle condo, renters, motorcycle, boat, umbrella and other types of coverage. 
  • If you have policies with different insurers, timing and policy terms are important considerations when deciding to bundle with one. 
  • Bundling home and auto policies with Farmers® could save you up to 10% on both, with bigger savings if you insure multiple cars. 


Bundling home and auto insurance policies with the same insurer can save you money on both policies. Even a discount of just a few percentage points could add up. And your discount comes with convenience. Instead of juggling multiple renewal dates and bills, your coverages are streamlined through one insurer. Learn how to bundle your policies and avoid common complications.

What types of insurance can you bundle?

The types of policies you can bundle and the amount of savings can vary depending on the insurance group as well as the state you live in.

  • Homeowners insurance and auto insurance. With Farmers, bundling auto and home could save you up to 10% off both, with more potential savings for bundling multiple cars on your policy.  
  • Renters and auto insurance. With Farmers, bundling renters and auto could save you up to 7% on both policies, depending on your state. 
  • Motorcycle and renters insurance 
  • Condo and auto insurance   
  • Other coverages, including RV, boat and umbrella insurance or personal liability insurance, can be bundled with your auto, home or renters policies. The more policies you bundle, the more you can save.

How do I bundle policies if I have different insurers?

If you have policies with different insurers, bringing them under one roof — bundling — can be a matter of timing. Here are steps to take if you want to switch.

  1. Look for switching perks. Some insurers offer bundling discounts for starting two policies at the same time. They may also waive or reduce fees if you cancel your old policy early and offer immediate coverage so there’s no waiting period and you’re not left with a coverage gap.  
  2. Do the math on your potential savings, including any perks, and weigh the potential short-term costs of switching against your long-term premium savings.  
  3. Check the renewal dates of your current policies. Many insurers will not fully refund your prorated premium or will charge a cancellation fee if you cancel in the middle of your policy term. Making a change close to your renewal date can help you avoid those costs, as well as coverage overlaps.  
  4. Plan your start date with your new company. A Farmers agent can work with you to schedule your start date to ensure a smooth transition and no coverage gaps.
