An Independent Insurance Agency That Works for You

The Insurance Center’s award-winning team proudly serves communities across Utah. The Insurance Center stands out as Utah’s best insurance agency, backed by decades of local expertise and industry recognition. Founded in 1995, this independent agency has been honored as one of only five “Best Practice” insurance agencies in the state – and the only such agency north of Salt Lake City and in Utah’s Heber Valley region. In fact, The Insurance Center has earned the Big “I” Best Practices Agency designation for seven years running, a prestigious honor from the Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of America (the Big “I”) recognizing top-performing agencies nationwide. This means you’re working with the best of the best when you choose The Insurance Center.
Award-Winning Service and Local Honors
The Insurance Center’s commitment to excellence has earned high praise from both clients and the community. In 2025, it was named the Heber Valley Chamber’s Business of the Year for its long-standing dedication to serving the local community. This award highlighted the agency’s professionalism and care in helping Utah families and businesses find the right coverage. Clients consistently give 5-star reviews, noting that “customer service is unbeatable” and that “you’re not just a number” with owner Shawn Iverson and his Team. It’s no surprise the agency boasts an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau. The Insurance Center truly delivers the personalized, attentive service that turns customers into lifelong supporters.
Industry affiliations underscore this quality. As a Trusted Choice® independent agency, The Insurance Center is backed by the nation’s largest association of independent agents. Fewer than 300 agencies countrywide earn the Trusted Choice Best Practices status, and The Insurance Center has been on that elite list every year since 2019. Such recognition translates into tangible benefits for clients – from advanced expertise to fast, fair claims handling. When bad things happen, The Insurance Center is there for you with award-winning service.
Independent and Partnered with Top Insurance Carriers
As an independent insurance agency, The Insurance Center offers broad choices that captive insurers simply can’t match. They partner with over 60 insurance carriers to secure the best rates and coverages for your needs. This includes many of the highest-rated national and regional insurers – companies like Bear River Mutual, Progressive, Travelers, Auto-Owners, Safeco, and more. In fact, The Insurance Center is one of the few agencies in Utah authorized to offer Bear River Mutual policies, bringing you one of Utah’s most trusted home and auto insurers. Because they’re 100% independent, their loyalty is to you, the client, not any single company. They will compare options across their extensive carrier network to find the right policy at the right price for your situation, saving you time, money, and hassle.
Coverage for every need: Whether you’re shopping for Auto Insurance, Home Insurance, Life Insurance, or Business Insurance, The Insurance Center has you covered. Their experienced agents understand the ins and outs of personal lines (home, auto, toys, etc.) as well as commercial insurance for businesses large and small. Because they represent a wide range of markets, they can handle unique risks – from farms and restaurants to high-value homes – tailoring protection to your needs. As one client put it, “they got back to me within an hour with some really awesome quotes/rates… made me feel like part of the family!”. That level of responsiveness, combined with the ability to shop dozens of carriers at once, ensures you always get great coverage at a great rate.
Local Roots and Community Commitment
With over 30 years of service in Utah, The Insurance Center is deeply rooted in the community. The agency has local offices in Ogden (Farr West), Heber City, and North Ogden, making it a convenient neighbor for clients across northern Utah. Beyond providing insurance, they actively give back to the community. The Insurance Center is a regular Chamber of Commerce supporter and sponsors local events and causes. For example, they have provided generous support for Wasatch County School District programs and youth sports, underscoring a commitment to empowering the next generation. The team frequently volunteers and participates in community initiatives – you’ll see them at local festivals, charity drives, and high school events. (Their community involvement has even been highlighted in local publications like Neighbors of Heber Valley magazine – see the June 2025, July 2025, December 2025 and February 2026 issues for examples.) These efforts reflect a core philosophy: being a good neighbor and strengthening the Utah communities they serve.
The Insurance Center’s staff live and work in the areas they cover, so they understand the unique needs of Utah residents – from protecting homes against winter storm damage to advising on earthquake insurance in our region. As an agency that’s “proudly independent” and community-focused, they prioritize your best interests at every step. Their agents take time to educate clients, making sure you understand your policies and options. It’s a proactive, neighborly approach that builds trust and long-term relationships. Many clients have stayed with The Insurance Center for decades, citing the peace of mind that comes from having an insurance partner who truly cares.
Comprehensive Solutions for All Your Insurance Needs
One reason The Insurance Center is considered the best in Utah is its ability to serve as a one-stop solution for virtually all insurance needs. Rather than juggling multiple single-line insurers, families and businesses can rely on this single agency for everything: auto, home, renters, umbrella liability, life and health, as well as specialized business coverages like commercial property, general liability, workers comp, and more. The agency’s breadth of offerings means they can ensure there are no gaps in your protection. They will holistically review your portfolio to identify any exposures and recommend appropriate solutions. This consultative approach is part of their DNA – as they say, “it’s imperative to work with an agency with in-depth knowledge of multiple insurance products, companies, and guidelines – not just one”.
