This is an often-misinterpreted term and doesn’t refer to a policy that covers “everything.” Instead, full coverage typically refers to a policy that includes both liability coverage and coverage for damage to your property.
Your Auto insurance Policy Declaration page lists the coverage you have selected. Call us with any questions. We are here to help clarify!
In the event of unexpected loss, Farmers can insure you in two distinct ways:
Actual cash value: Damaged property is covered for its replacement value minus depreciation.
Replacement cost: Dollar amount is equal to the cost to replace damaged property without taking depreciation into account but is limited to a maximum dollar amount.
After a car accident, home damage, or any kind of loss, it’s important to let us know. After that, you can get the claims process moving by choosing a method below:
Text REPORTCLAIM to 29141, and you’ll receive a link to begin the claims process. Messaging and data rates may apply.
Use our Farmers Mobile App
Call the Claim Contact Center at 800-435-7764 (English, Spanish and hearing-impaired available)
Car rental companies charge daily fees for their own insurance to damages in your rental agreement. However, it is possible that your current auto policy provides rental car coverage. Make sure to check your policy or contact us for more details before renting a car.

ABOUT US
There’s something you should know about Sean and Alison McCarthy – they knew the kind of life they wanted to live and were courageous enough to uproot from California and move their little family across the country to join the welcoming community of Columbia, TN. They value relationships – knowing and mutually caring for people – and Columbia is the perfect place for them to settle in for the long term.
Sean is a people-person and an analytical problem-solver, a combination of traits that make him an invaluable resource to families and individuals who are looking for solutions to their insurance needs.
Alison brings her background in art, education, non-profit, and volunteerism to the partnership. She graduated from Vanderbilt and feels at home being back in Tennessee. Having extended family in Tennessee, Illinois, Georgia, and Texas adds a little more “family” to that home feeling, too.
Together Sean and Alison serve the community and raise their two children. They feel strongly about being in service to others. In their business, this means finding the right solutions and insurance products for each client.
Sean and Alison invite you to visit their office – the welcome mat is out for you! And bring the little ones because the play mat is clean and ready for them!
