Allstate Insurance Agent Serving Iowa

Prefer email? Send your questions to quote@hiltinsurance.com and mention you’re in Iowa.

Iowa customers are served by our North Kansas City office, Hilt Group Agency – Allstate (agent Eric Hilt). The agents in our NKC office are licensed in Iowa, and they help Iowa families with Allstate auto, home, renters, landlord, life, boat and motorcycle insurance. The office is at 315 E 18th Ave in North Kansas City, Missouri, so we work with most Iowa customers by phone, email and online. Call NKC at 816-605-7684 to get started. That works well for families with ties on both sides of the border, like college students at Iowa schools, people who split time between Iowa and Missouri, and anyone who just wants a real agent to call.

Iowa Auto Insurance Requirements

According to the Iowa Insurance Division, Iowa law requires minimum liability coverage of:

• $20,000 for bodily injury to or death of one person in an accident
• $40,000 for bodily injury to or death of two or more people in an accident
• $15,000 for damage to the property of others in an accident

That’s lower than the 25/50/25 minimum in Missouri and Kansas. The Insurance Division points out that many drivers find the right amount of coverage is above the minimums, and may include comprehensive and collision coverage for their own car.

Under Iowa Code 516A.1, auto policies must include uninsured, underinsured and hit-and-run motorist coverage unless the named insured rejects it in writing. Before you sign a rejection, it’s worth asking what it would cost to keep that protection.

If you’re having trouble finding coverage, the Iowa Insurance Division notes that the Iowa Automobile Insurance Plan may give you access to auto insurance when you can’t get it in the regular market.

SR-22 Filings in Iowa

According to the Iowa DOT, if your license is suspended or revoked and you’re required to show proof of financial responsibility, you need it from the first day of the suspension or revocation, and you have to keep it for two years. Most people do that with an SR-22 filed by an Iowa-authorized insurance company. The DOT also accepts a surety bond, or cash or securities of $55,000. You can drive and register only the vehicles listed on your SR-22, and letting the proof lapse suspends your license and registrations. Our NKC office handles SR-22 filings for Iowa customers, so call 816-605-7684 once you have your DOT notice. Missouri has its own rules, which are explained in our Missouri SR-22 guide.

What Car Insurance Costs in Iowa

NAIC data puts Iowa’s 2023 average auto insurance expenditure at $872.61 per insured vehicle, one of the lowest in the country and well below the national average of $1,281.92. Your own price depends on your record, vehicle, location and coverage.

Iowa Weather and Your Home

Iowa homeowners deal with hail, tornadoes, winter storms and straight-line winds. On August 10, 2020, a derecho swept across the state. The National Weather Service estimated maximum winds of about 140 mph in southwest Cedar Rapids. Review your dwelling coverage, roof coverage and deductibles before storm season, and ask about separate flood coverage if you live near a river or creek, since standard homeowners policies generally don’t cover flood.
