WHY MANTA & HURST
We've been covering the great lakes for over 80 years

This isn’t accidental (pun intended). We’ve been establishing ties in the community ever since, supporting our local schools, their sports.. and we’ve got the trophies to prove it!

…we've used Manta & Hurst since the late 80s, and on the (fortunately) rare occasion where their services have been needed- they've always been prompt, and extremely helpful

We’ve also been able to lock in some of the best rates around, and have gained a trustworthy reputation amongst our providers- which benefits everyone we work with. 

When we act as your advocate, our insurance companies are eager to help you out, and help us remain in good standing with our customers.

Homeowner, Automotive, Commercial and Small Business coverage is our specialty. 

Our customers are our life-line, and the most important part of our business. We haven’t forgotten this, over the last 80+ years!
