Protect Your Possessions

Caloundra Removals & Storage suggests you beware of companies advising you get free insurance. A removal company may tell you that you get FREE insurance with their company.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING!!!

Removal & Storage Insurance

If you require insurance for your removal and/or storage, we can provide this. We will require an Insurance Declaration to be completed.

We will then provide you with a Certificate of Insurance. This must be arranged prior to your goods being removed.

A removals company cannot arrange or advise on any form of insurance cover, protection or indemnity, unless they hold an AFS licence or they are authorised representatives of a licensee.

Since March 2004 the law has imposed higher standards that protect you whenever you deal with businesses offering financial services.

Insurance cover by a removal company whether it’s ‘free’ or otherwise, is a financial service.

All businesses that offer ‘financial services must hold an Australian financial services licence or be an authorised representative of a licensee.

You’ll hear some people call this ‘AFS licence’. These businesses must be registered with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission.

Caloundra Removals & Storage are authorised to give you general advice about and arrange storage insurance pertaining to your removal.

We have undertaken appropriate training and have the documentation required by ASIC.
