Just because you’re renting doesn’t mean that your belongings don’t need the same level of protection as a homeowner’s. That’s where renters insurance comes in. But how do you strike a balance between good coverage and affordability? APOLLO offers effortless tenant insurance on our online platform with quotes starting at just $11/month. If you reside in Winnipeg, here’s a blueprint to help you secure the cheapest renters insurance.
In a typical renters insurance policy, you’ll find three main types of coverage:
Personal Property Coverage: For damage or theft of your personal belongings.
Liability Coverage: Provides protection in case someone gets injured on your property.
Additional Living Expenses: Covers extra costs if you can no longer live in your rental due to damages.
The cost of renters insurance in Winnipeg depends on a few factors including the value of your personal property, where you live, and the deductible you select.
There are many insurance providers in Winnipeg, and all offer slightly different coverage options and rates. Gather several quotes to have a solid comparison. You can use online tools to make this process simpler and faster.
The cheapest policy might not provide all the coverage you need. Ensure that you fully understand what your policy offers. Tailor the policy according to your requirements.

Opting for a higher deductible can lower your monthly premiums. However, remember that you would need to pay this amount out of pocket before your insurance kicks in, so make sure it’s an amount you can afford.
Many insurance providers offer discounts to customers who bundle their policies. If you already have auto insurance, for example, consider purchasing your renters insurance from the same provider.
Some actions can lower your premium. Ask your provider if installing smoke detectors, deadbolt locks, or a security system can earn you discounts.
Many insurers use your credit score to determine the premiums. A good credit score can lead to lower premiums.
Once you’ve opted for a policy, go ahead and make the purchase. Do not forget to review the policy annually or whenever your living situation changes.
