Standard Excess Insurance Cover

All KEA Campers vehicles come with comprehensive insurance cover. A standard excess of AUD 5,000 applies in the event of any damage to either our vehicle or third party property. The hirer will also be fully liable for replacing or repairing damaged windscreens and tires. A security bond of AUD 5,000 will be taken on vehicle collection. The security bond can be paid by cash, traveler's cheques or credit card. Should the bond be paid by credit card the amount will be debited to your account immediately, any currency fluctuations are not the responsibility of KEA Campers. The bond is fully refundable on return of the vehicle to the agreed location, on the agreed date in clean condition, with no damage incurred to the KEA Campers vehicle or third party property, with a full tank of fuel, the toilet cassette and waste water tank has been emptied and no equipment lost or damaged.

KEA Campers offer the following two (2) options to reduce or waive the Standard Excess:

Excess Reduction 1

Excess Reduction 1 at AUD 25 per day and AUD 30 per day (4WD) will reduce the excess for any damage to either vehicle or third party property to a maximum of AUD 2,000. The hirer, however, will be fully liable for daily rental rate for the period the vehicle is off fleet for accident repairs (max. 7 days) and for replacing or repairing damaged windscreens and tires. The bond of AUD 2,000 can be paid by cash, traveler's cheques or credit card: a manual imprint of the credit card will be taken. The bond is fully refundable on return of the vehicle to the agreed location, on the agreed date in clean condition with no damage incurred to the KEA Campers vehicle or third party property with a full tank of fuel, the toilet cassette and waste water tank emptied and no equipment lost or damaged. The total insurance charge is limited to a maximum of 50 days or AUD 1,250 and AUD 1,500 respectively.

Excess Reduction 2

Excess Reduction 2 at AUD 35 per day and AUD 40 per day (4WD) will waive the excess for any vehicle and third party property damage and the cost of replacing or repairing windscreens and tires. However, a security deposit of AUD 250 is payable at the time of pickup to ensure that the vehicle is returned to the agreed location, on the agreed date in clean condition and the toilet cassette and waste water tank has been emptied and no items are lost or damaged. The total insurance charge is limited to a maximum of 50 days or AUD 1,750 and AUD 2,000 respectively.

Important:

The renter is fully liable for any damage to the KEA Campers vehicle or third party property if:

  1. The terms of the rental contract are breached.
  2. Damage to the vehicle is caused by careless, willful or reckless driving.
  3. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
  4. Driving on restricted roads.
  5. Water submersion or salt water damage caused through own fault.

In case of any damage to the KEA Campers vehicle or third party property a second bond will be collected to cover the excess for any subsequent damage.
