RE: Would renovation debris falling on a parked car go under comprehensive?
If someone doing the roofing work dropped material onto the parked car, the contractor’s liability coverage may also be relevant, especially if negligence was involved. That could give you a route through the contractor’...
RE: Bundling insurance with USAA: worth it or just hype?
Bundling always sounded like the golden ticket, but I’ve had a similar experience - my “discount” seemed to evaporate with each renewal. I’m mostly a weekend wanderer too, and it’s wild how little that seems to matter. L...
