Insurance
Only accredited, professional removalists can offer you insurance for your furniture!
What removalists can and can’t provide in relation to insurance has changed over the last few years. Yes, every professional removalist should have their own Public Liability and Third Party Insurance but you must be aware this does not extend to covering your own personal furniture and effects.
Today, insurance in transit is deemed separate from your removal charges and the choice is yours to make.
No matter how much care is taken by professional removalists, sometimes accidents occur.
Ashtons Removals can arrange insurance for your goods while they are in transit or storage because we are an Authorised Representative of Aldridge & Street who are licensed Insurance Brokers. In fact the insurance cover we can offer you is one of the most cost effective covers you will find in Australia and specific to the relocation of your furniture and effects. Our premiums are so cheap because our claims are so low. This is the very reason why you should always move with a professional removalist.
Taking out insurance with Ashtons Removals is easy:
- First, one of our authorised representatives will discuss with you the insurance documentation provided by Ashtons Removals.
- Second, either by completing the Insurance Declaration Form or by referring to your current contents policy, a replacement value of your furniture and effects is calculated.
- Third, simply confirm with Ashtons Removals the type of cover required and the replacement value and we will issue you with a Certificate of Insurance.
Any information Ashtons Removals gives you is general advice only and we have not considered your individual situation. You should read our Product Disclosure Statement carefully before you decide whether to take out Customer Goods in Transit and Storage Insurance and choose from the various options available. It is up to you to make sure the cover you choose suits your needs.
