INSURANCE


I am travelling around Aussie in a 4X4 motor home...Has anyone any suggestions for insuring personal effects cash etc in the motor home?  The insurance companies I have contacted don't want to know about it...

Thanks in advance

My slide on camper is insured with NRMA including contents, but I'm not sure what "contents" means other than stove, fridge, cupboards, etc.

If you are a member of CMCA you can arrange insurance for your MH through Ken Tame, that insurance would be hard to beat for a MH, I think you have a contents insurance of $2000 and you can increase it for extra premium, membership with CMCA costs you $40 a year.
Cheers

Have a look @ CIL Insurance. They specialise in caravans. One thing that they do offer is if your van is damaged and cannot be towed , it will be fixed and returned to your home address even though you may be many KM's away from home.

We had our caravan insurance through SGIC . We d an accident a wrote it off, that was a Wednesday we contacted them on Thursday ( with photos) Friday they phoned and said they would pay us full insurance. Contents though  over a $100 , they want proof photos / receipts . Contents you put what amount you need on , no one does cash. Hope this helps. Don Diane

Thanks for responses, the MH has full comprehensive cover by NRMA but no one wants to know about contents/personal effects IE cameras, laptops, media players GPS etc etc.
I will just have to make sure I keep everything out of sight and locked away... This is a great Country we have so HUGE we are enjoying our first trip.....

Both GIO and NRMA give you automatic inclusive cover of $2000 for contents when you insure your motor home or Caravan with Comprehensive insurance

We have been insured with CIL, since owning a motor home. CIL specialise in caravan and motor home insurance. Over the eighteen years we owned caravans we insured with NRMA.
We had a quote from all the major insurers and CIL were 30% cheaper than the next best.
