About Us
About the Weed Ross Group
So you want to know more about the Weed Ross Group, do you? Maybe you already know that we’re one of the top insurance agencies in Western New York. Or maybe you are already familiar with the fact that we provide some of the best home, auto, and business insurance packages you can get your hands on. Maybe you even saw that we also offer life and renters insurance, as well as insurance for vacation homes, boats, motorcycles, farms, classic cars, and more.
Or maybe you didn’t know those things, and that’s okay too. That’s what this page is for. But let’s take a step back and start with a little history. There are only a couple of key points on the timeline, so we can keep it brief.
That explains where the Weed Ross Group came from, but where are we now?
While most of our brick and mortar locations are scattered throughout Upstate and Western New York, the Weed Ross Group is licensed in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Minnesota. Our main offices are located in Ellicottville, Orchard Park, Batavia, and Randolph, and we have a great team at each location ready to help.
When you purchase a policy through the Weed Ross Group, you’ll be working with someone who is familiar with your current area as well as the full offerings of the companies we are partnered with.
The Weed Ross Group: an independent insurance agency you can depend on
The Weed Ross Group is an independent insurance agency, which is, in many ways, vastly different from agents that can only sell you the insurance packages from their specific company. We represent and are partnered with over forty different insurance companies.
What does this mean for you?
It means options, flexibility, and opportunity, of course—but it also means savings. And we’re not just talking about money, we’re talking about saving time, too.
We’re in a strategically unique position to offer a level of service that you won’t receive anywhere else.
How does it work, you ask?
That’s a great question.
Luckily we have you covered there too.
In a nutshell, we collect your information like any other insurance agency might, but then we work directly with our partner companies to build the quotes. You don’t even have to do anything while we do that. You can run errands, go golfing, maybe grab some brunch—kidding—it doesn’t take that long at all. You can still do those things if you want, but we will actually be able to get back to you with quotes almost immediately. We then work with you to determine which company or companies best meet your insurance and budget needs.
Over time, the Weed Ross Group will check in periodically to ensure your policies are up to date and, more importantly, up to your standards. We want to make sure that you not only start out with the best rates available, but that you also maintain competitive coverage throughout the duration of your policy. Protecting you and your family is our top priority, and that never wavers.

Saving You Time and Money
Unlike agents who can only sell you the insurance of one company, as an independent insurance agency, we represent over twenty companies. Partnering with many insurance companies gives us the ability to quote your home and auto insurance, as well as a variety of other insurance products across a broad spectrum of providers.
Essentially our agency will do the shopping for you, saving you time and money. We collect your information and work directly with our partner companies receiving quotes. We then work with you to determine which company or companies best meet your insurance and budget needs. And over time our agency will also do periodic reviews of your policies to ensure that you are still getting the best coverage to protect you and your family. We also make sure your rates remain competitive when compared with their partner companies.
