About Us

About RKI Insurance

RKI Insurance is a fourth-generation family-owned and independent agency that has been serving the Lebanon community and Linn County since 1926. Although we've grown, matured, and gone through some changes, we are still the same community-oriented and service-driven insurance agency that Vern Reeves started over 90 years ago. Our motto is "protecting our clients and taking care of our community", and that creed drives everything we do. 

RKI Insurance is where Lebanon families, farms, businesses, and non-profits know they can find honest advice and customized insurance at a great price. RKI is where you go when you want great insurance made easy.  You know us because you’ve seen us, at Warrior games, community projects, and out and about. Come by or give us a call and see for yourself why Lebanon families trust RKI to protect what’s important.

*Please note that RKI does not provide life or health insurance, but we can point you in the right direction*

A Statement from Our Principal Agent - Wyatt King

As the fourth generation in our family-owned, independent agency, I’m proud to continue the tradition of protecting our clients and taking care of our community. This insurance agency was started by my great-grandpa Vern Reeves, grown by my grandpa, Roland King, and was ran by my father, Jeff King, for 30 years before I took over. I was taught that insurance agents take care of your needs by working with you to understand the risks you face, and that service has been the key to our family's success for 90 years.

Let RKI Insurance help you navigate the risks your family, farm, business, or non-profit faces. Come see me, Wyatt King, at RKI Insurance- at the Y in Lebanon, or give me a call at 541-451-1313.

Why Choose Independent Agencies like RKI?

Independent Agents are true “agents” in that they represent multiple insurance carriers and act as an advocate and a guide for their clients. We don’t work for a company, we work with companies just like we work with you. Have a company give you a decision you don’t like? We’ll help you fight it. If you have a bad experience or have your rates go up, we’ll take care of you by getting you new quotes from other quality carriers. We make having great coverages at competitive prices easy by doing the legwork of quoting, helping you sort out multiple options, and then working with you to fine-tune your policy to your needs and priorities. When you have a hard to insure situation, or you're getting the run-around from an insurance carrier, you want a good agent on your side. That's why our clients stick with RKI for generations- they know that RKI will be their advocate and their support. Come see why you want RKI on your side!

Options Are a Beautiful Thing...

RKI represents a slate of quality, reliable insurance carriers of all sizes and stripes. We write with big names like Safeco, Progressive, Nationwide, and Liberty Mutual who have resources to handle your every need. We have great partnerships with smaller carriers like Grange and Red Shield who still write insurance in a personal way. We know how to find obscure options through brokers, risk purchasing groups, or specialty carriers to help you get the best deal. We’ve been writing with our flagship carrier, Safeco, since 1928, and they combine the resources of a national carrier with high quality of service and a personal touch. Regardless of your situation, whether it’s a unique classic car or an asbestos abatement business, RKI can help you find great coverage at a good price.

RKI also takes great pride in being "your agent's favorite agent". We maintain strong partnerships with many of our local competitors, providing them a resource they can trust to take care of their clients without harming their relationship whenever they can't find coverage for you. When you can't find a good insurance option, or your agent can't find a good option for you, RKI is ready to answer the call and help you find great insurance and affordable prices. 

Blending New Technology with Traditional Agency Values

It doesn't matter if you only meet face to face or if you work entirely online, our team at RKI can work with you in finding the right insurance. We love to meet up over coffee or lunch, but we are ready to set up a video conference and handle documents through e-sign whenever necessary or needed. We love the convenience and features of modern technology, and we blend them with the same values that have driven our family agency since 1926 - honesty, advocacy, and stewardship.

RKI Referral

Referrals are the best form of advertising out there, and we love 'em! But it's not fair that newspapers, radio stations, and even Facebook gets paid for their advertising, but you don't! To fix that, RKI has started its own referral program to reward our "grassroot" marketers out there. If you send a friend to RKI to get a quote for home, auto, or liability insurance, we will send you $5 cash to go spend how you please. So send a friend or twelve to RKI for a quote for instant cash and chances to get some cash! *Excludes Health Insurance.*

We are looking to further improve our referral program, so feel free to suggest something and keep checking back to see any changes!
