Auto Insurance for Parkville Drivers
Highways 9 and 45 carry a lot of Parkville traffic, with I-435 and I-29 nearby for trips across the metro. We'll make sure your coverage fits how far and how often you drive.
Parkville is a river town in southern Platte County, with a walkable historic downtown, English Landing Park along the Missouri River, and Park University on the hill above — the school dates back to 1875. It's close to downtown Kansas City, Missouri, but it feels like its own place.
Shield Squad Agency is based in Independence, and Troy Lentz works with Parkville homeowners, renters, students, and business owners — along with neighbors in Riverside, Platte City, and the rest of Platte County.
Parkville is on the far side of the metro from our Independence office, but distance isn't a problem — we're happy to handle the whole conversation by phone or text.
From downtown near the river to the neighborhoods up the hill, we'll look at your coverage and explain it plainly.

A few river-town realities worth keeping in mind for Parkville.
Yes. We're based in Independence and work with customers all over Platte County, Parkville included.
It's worth checking. Downtown Parkville flooded badly in 1993, and standard homeowners and business policies generally don't cover flood. Look up your address on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center, and keep in mind a new flood policy usually takes 30 days to start.
FEMA Flood Map Service CenterRenters insurance is usually the simplest answer. A parent's homeowners policy may extend a little coverage to a student's belongings, but often with limits — and it may not cover their liability at their own place.
