Top 4 Renters Insurance Carriers in MA

All that stuff in your apartment? It’s important to you! You want it to be protected through renters insurance. But you don’t want it protected through just any insurance carrier. You want to work with a reputable company who you can trust to provide you with the right coverage at the right price. 

At Berry Insurance, we’ve helped thousands of renters get the right policy, and we work with several personal insurance carriers (some of which are highlighted in this article.) So we know a lot about what makes a thorough renters insurance policy and a good personal insurance company. 

Below, we’ll go over five of our favorite renters insurance carriers, in no particular order.

1. Safety Insurance

Founded in 1979, Safety Insurance provides excellent service to renters across Massachusetts.

According to their website, since they were founded they have had a “belief that we would succeed as a company if customers were given the best possible service.”

Their website claims they “offer a broad selection of coverage, including losses to your home and its contents from numerous perils and for liability to others arising from ownership or occupancy of your home.” 

They also consistently offer great coverage at a great price, with discounts including loss free discounts, new home credits, fire and burglar alarm credits, and even a 20% discount for bundling home and auto policies.

We also love that Safety Insurance gives back to the community through The Safety Insurance Charitable Foundation and an employee gift matching program.

2. Plymouth Rock Assurance

The next on our list, Plymouth Rock Assurance has been providing personal insurance to the community since 1982.

On their website, they say “delivering insurance with kindness and humanity is still our job. It means genuinely caring about our customers, treating you like more than just a policy number and partnering with local insurance experts right in your neighborhood to help you navigate the complex world of insurance.”

Through the Plymouth Rock Assurance Foundation, and an employee matching program, Plymouth Rock actively gives back to the community, which we are personally fans of.

We also love Plymouth Rock’s Resources Page, which provides clients with helpful resources about their insurance and risk management.

3. Safeco Insurance

Founded in 1923, Safeco Insurance is a part of Liberty Mutual Insurance, a Fortune 100 company and the sixth-largest personal lines insurer in the country.

As an independent insurance agency, we admire that in addition to just providing comprehensive renters insurance policies to Massachusetts residents, Safeco also values relationships with independent agents. In fact, they sell their products and services exclusively through independent agents. This means they care that their clients get matched with the right policy for them and have a great customer service experience.

4. The Norfolk & Dedham Group

The oldest carrier on the list, The Norfolk & Dedham Group has been serving the community since 1825.

And we think being a member of the community for 200 years says a lot about a company’s reputation.

“As a locally grown insurance company, we know the region, know the risks, and know the right coverage,” they say on their website.

Their online reviews praise an easy and informative claims process.
