Handling an auto-claim in Lewiston, ID
With 34,693 residents, Lewiston sees insurers default to statewide or regional value tables. Countering that with genuine Idaho comps for your exact vehicle is usually the whole ballgame — and most of it can be done by email from Lewiston.
Lewiston is roughly 23 miles from Moscow, ID — close enough for in-person appraisal options within Idaho, but your comparable-sales evidence should reflect the Lewiston market specifically, not a neighbouring city's prices.
Keep every repair record: the estimate, the final invoice, and any notes on structural or frame work. Those documents — not the adjuster's opinion — are what move a valuation. Search for a reputable collision shop near Lewiston and ask for an itemized post-repair report.
