Edgerton came to life in 1870 when the railroad reached this corner of southwest Johnson County. The town was named for the railroad's chief engineer, and the depot was the very first building. Rail still shapes the place today — BNSF's big Logistics Park Kansas City intermodal facility opened here in 2013, right alongside a small town that still has plenty of open country around it.

Here's what Edgerton households and business owners most often want to go over.
With I-35 and US-56 close by and freight moving in and out of the intermodal park, Edgerton drivers share the road with a lot of semis. Kansas policies include PIP, and we'll help you pick liability limits that fit that kind of traffic.
Many Edgerton properties have room for a shop or barn. We'll make sure your dwelling and other-structures limits cover everything that's actually on your land.
Renting in Edgerton while you work nearby? A renters policy protects your belongings and your liability for not much money.
If your family relies on your paycheck, life insurance helps them stay on solid ground. We'll explain term, whole life, and IUL plainly, and help you choose an amount.
Businesses that serve the logistics park, contractors, and small local shops all carry different risks. We'll talk through liability, property, and commercial auto with you.
Once you get away from the truck routes, the roads around Edgerton are wide open. We'll set up motorcycle coverage that fits your riding.
Heading south to a lake with a boat behind the truck? We'll explain coverage for the boat, trailer, and your liability.
If the camper lives out by the shop, it still needs protection from wind and hail. We'll go over coverage at home and on the road.
Country dogs roam, and roaming dogs get hurt. We'll talk through pet insurance through Farmers, provided by Pets Best, so you know what it can help with.
