About Us
The Insurance Center is an independent insurance agency with two convenient locations in Havana, Illinois and Chandlerville, Illinois. Being an independent insurance agency means that we do not work for any specific insurance carrier - we work for you! Which also gives us the flexibility to offer you affordable prices and individualized options.
We provide farm, single and multi-peril crop, commercial, home, auto, boat, personal articles, umbrella, individual life, individual health, group life, group health, risk assessment, and disability.
Our History
Tom Carlock purchased Peoples Insurance Agency of Chandlerville in 2003. This agency has been serving the Chanderville area since 1937, providing the best insurance coverage for your farm, home, auto, business, life and health insurance needs. In 2012 Tom expanded the agency when he bought the Havana Insurance Agency. In 2014 the agency had another growth spurt when Tom bough the Insurance Center from his father-in-law, Gale Beekman.
