Floods Insurance Claims and Government Payments

If you have suffered any damage at all during the floods and if you have an insurance policy then make a claim. Do not assume that you are not covered and do not be guided by a friend or neighbour who says you are not. All policies are different and even two policies from the same company can be very different, particularly the definitions, the wording and the exemptions.

 

Some policies will not only cover damage to your home and contents but also stables, sheds and fencing so be sure to check out what you are entitled to claim.

If you have suffered hardship due to the floods you may also be eligible for the Government's Disaster Recovery Payment and/or Income Recovery Subsidy.  Call 180 22 66 to find out if you are eligible to claim.
