Frequently Asked Questions
Even at home, your trailer or horse float may be affected by life’s unforeseen events. GIO covers your trailer or float wherever it is, whether that’s on the road or parked at home.
Yes, but it’s limited. GIO Comprehensive Car Insurance provides:
- legal liability cover in case your trailer or horse float damages someone else’s property, and
- up to $1000 cover for accidental damage to your trailer caused by separating from your car while moving.
This is why you may also want to take out trailer insurance, separate to the limited cover GIO Comprehensive Car Insurance offers.
Yes if you hold trailer insurance. Our policy covers your trailer or horse float regardless of who is towing it, provided they're using it with your permission and are legally allowed to tow it. Note GIO Comprehensive Car Insurance won’t cover your trailer if someone else is towing it.
If you hold trailer insurance and your trailer or horse float is less than two years old and is written off as a total loss, we'll replace it with a new one of a similar make and model, if you were the first owner. For other written off trailers and horse floats, you are covered for the agreed value or market value (depending on your policy type) to help you find a suitable replacement.
See the PDS for the full terms and conditions of when each type of cover applies.
If your trailer or horse float is not roadworthy after an incident, we’ll cover the reasonable costs of towing to the nearest repairer or a safe location. We also cover storage costs while arrangements are being made for repairs or assessment.
Our teams are here to help you decide which cover is right for you. If you have questions about insuring your trailer or horse float, call us on 13 10 10.
