Just wondering whether anyone has some ideas about insuring a trailer. I have a trailer for camping gear which takes the OzTent and all, so it's not a camper trailer. My vehicle insurer will allow $750 for the trailer if it comes to grief (!!) but will not insure the trailer separately.
The trailer itself is worth $10K and the equipment is probably another $7K so I would like to be responsible about this. Any suggestions happily received.
Cheers, Ros.

Hi, I reckon you can insure it as a trailer with extra's , like the van. with SGIC when I am a way I lodge a list of extra bits and they cover them by the month, actually the tent etc is covered under your
home contents insurance, when we go away on a bush trip or interstate in just the 4x4 ,I insure the gps , gen set , tent , stove, camera ( up to $5.000) etc , and you can cancel it when you get back and they only charged me for 1 1/2 months pro rata, $7.00.
Cheers Des.

G'day Des. There's no doubt one needs to know a small amount to formulate the right questions. This was most helpful, and I might be reviewing my insurance overall.
Many thanks,
Ros.
