Car Insurance Inquiry
I’m currently insured in my home state, but I’m about to relocate. I’ll be driving my car to my new state and leaving it there for a week while I move my belongings and family.

It’s great that you’re thinking ahead about your car insurance before your move! In general, most car insurance policies provide coverage for a certain period even if you’re temporarily out of your insured location, but the specifics can vary by provider and state laws.
If you’re just driving your car to the new state and it’s insured, your current policy will likely still cover you during that week. However, it’s important to check with your insurance company to confirm that your coverage is valid in the state you’re moving to, especially if you’ll be parked there for an extended period.
Additionally, since you’ll be relocating, you’ll need to update your policy to reflect your new address and ensure you meet your new state’s insurance requirements. It’s a good idea to start that conversation with your insurance provider soon to avoid any gaps in coverage. Safe travels and best of luck with your move!
