BE WEATHER-READY THIS SUMMER


Being ready is essential

Living in Australia, sunny skies can quickly turn to storm clouds, no matter where you are – from regional, rural and remote Australia to our metropolitan areas. It’s important to be ready for extreme weather.

GETTING YOUR COVER WEATHER-READY

Make sure you have the right cover for your circumstances

Here are some tips to help you review your insurance and get weather-ready:

  • Ensure that your insurance is up to date and relevant to your current circumstances.
  • Review the sum for which you are insured to ensure it is correct and appropriate.
  • Check that your premiums are paid to make sure there are no interruptions to your cover.


Be ready to lodge a claim

There are a few simple things you can do before you claim to make this process easier during what can be a very stressful time:

  • While it’s easy to forget, keeping photographic evidence of your insured property and any receipts for purchases made will help with your claim.
  • Making a full inventory list isn’t necessary for your claim, but it will generally be helpful.
  • You can also prepare your boat for extreme weather using our Severe Weather Preparation Checklist.
