For Trucking Families
You Keep America Moving.
Who's Protecting Your Family If You Can't?
Owner-operators and CDL drivers carry more risk than most. Irregular income, time away from home, and the physical demands of the road make financial protection not just smart — it makes it necessary.
Dustin Neighbors is a former owner-operator and hotshot trucker. He built this agency knowing exactly what trucking families go through. We help drivers and their families find coverage that fits real life on the road, including income protection, life insurance with living benefits, and retirement strategies that work around how you actually earn.
No jargon. No pressure. Just straight talk from someone who has been in the cab.
Income Protection
If you are out of the cab for any reason, your family still has bills. Term life with living benefits can provide a safety net that works even when you cannot.
Retirement That Makes Sense
Owner-operators do not have a company 401k. We help trucking families build retirement strategies around irregular income with protected growth and tax advantages.
For the Family at Home
Teresa works directly with truckers wives and families to make sure they understand the plan and feel confident about the future — not just the driver.

Yes. Neighbors Helps is a licensed independent insurance agency based in Yuba City, California. We serve families in Yuba City, Marysville, Live Oak, Gridley, Chico, Sacramento, and surrounding Sutter County and Yuba County communities. All appointments are available by phone or Zoom.
What types of life insurance does Neighbors Helps offer?
Neighbors Helps helps families explore term life insurance, participating whole life insurance, indexed universal life (IUL), and final expense insurance. We work with top-rated carriers to find options that fit your goals, budget, and family situation.
What is the difference between term life and whole life insurance?
Term life insurance provides coverage for a set period, typically 10, 20, or 30 years, and is the most affordable option for income and mortgage protection. Whole life insurance is permanent coverage that builds guaranteed cash value over time and never expires. The right choice depends on your goals, budget, and how long you need protection.
Can I get life insurance without a medical exam in California?
Yes. Final expense insurance is a simplified whole life policy that typically does not require a medical exam and is easier to qualify for. Some term life and IUL policies also offer simplified or accelerated underwriting depending on your age and health. We can help you find the right option.
What is an annuity and is it right for retirement planning?
A fixed indexed annuity is a retirement savings vehicle that earns interest linked to a market index while protecting your principal from market losses. It can provide tax-deferred growth and may create a guaranteed income stream you cannot outlive. Annuities are often a good fit for people within 5 to 15 years of retirement who want protection and growth without market risk.
