Middletown, Delaware

Insurance for one of Delaware's fastest-growing towns

Middletown has changed quickly. The town has grown from under 19,000 people in 2010 to about 25,800 today, and you can see it in the new neighborhoods around the old Main Street. That means many people here are still fairly new to the area.

Many of them also drive a long way to work. Route 1 and US 301 both pass right by town, so a long drive to work is common. New house, new commute, new policy: it's a good time to make sure everything fits. Our office is about 24 miles north if you want to talk it through.

We serve ZIP code 19709.

What matters most in Middletown

What we would look at first for a home in the Middletown area.

  • Homeowners Insurance

    Your first Delaware home

    Your mortgage company will ask for a home policy, but the amount it requires isn't always the amount you need. Check that your coverage would rebuild the house at today's prices, and that your belongings are counted too.

  • Auto Insurance

    A long commute

    More miles on the highway means more time in traffic. Tell your insurance company how far you really drive, and look at your liability limits. Delaware's minimums are a starting point, not a recommendation.

  • ATV Insurance

    More room, more toys

    Outside of town, there is still plenty of open land. An ATV usually isn't covered the way you might expect by a home or auto policy, so it's worth getting its own coverage.
