My name is Geoff and my wife is Criss, we have done a fair bit of camping in the past, and have decided to buy ourselves a motorhome and explore this great country of ours. We intend to sell our house and everything that ties us to one place. My question (one of many) is this. If we have no permanent address, how does rego and insurance work?

I think you will need a address,possibly friend or relative or child to hold your mail for you.You then communicate with them when you know the bill are due and pay online or wherever you are at the time

Welcome to the gang Geoff and Chriss, enjoy here and out in the playground.
Me, I use a daughters address for everything and works well for me. I arrange for a pack of "Express Post" prepaid envelopes to be sent to her place so she can forward mail to me at a address I give her at the time, that can be a PO or somewhere else. PO works well. You get your mail addressed to you, c/- xxxxxxxxxPO. I give the full address of the PO. I always get her to give me the tracking number so I can track it's progress on my poota.
I am also registered with the AEO as a "Person Of No Fixed Address" and this allows me to vote for my last known fixed address OR if I can't vote for some reason I don't have too.
My daughters address is used as a postal address for Centrelink matters and works well for me. Be up front with them and they are fine.

Hi Geoff and Chriss
Welcome to the group
We had the same thought as you guys, have done some enquiries with our insurance company and the rego mob and have now set up an email account with them, when any bills are due they send them to us via email and we then just do a bill pay transfer of funds, so far it is working ok, no paper!
we do have our sons home address as back up if required.
