    Default Insurance

    I have a 6-18 lucas that I store in a shed on my property in the bush. I've locked the shed, removed the keys and chained the mill to the shed. We spend maybe one weekend a month out there.

    While I'm happy enough with this arrangement I wouldn't mind having some insurance just in case, so I'm interested to hear how people insure their equipment.

    I've had some quotes from anywhere between $200 for a farm motor policy that may or may not cover the mill, through to a fully blown contents and infrastructure policy that starts at $1300, minimum.

    Keen on the motor policy but just not confident that it's fully covered.

    I seem to remember that if you don't visit every 6 weeks your not covered.
    Need to stay 1 night every 6 weeks min.
    So don't think about skipping it this month??

    If you are not confident it is covered, have it itemised in the policy. Usually a cheaper way to insure anyway. A good broker can help in these sort of situations.

    Thanks all.

    I had wondered about funny little clauses like that 6 week thing. I specifically advised what the mill was and that I wanted it itemised.

    The broker advised that they checked with the insurer and confirmed that it will be covered. I read through the wording and didn't spot anything obvious in the PDS, so we'll see how it goes.

    It's about $210 under a farm motor policy.

    David.
