The Royal Automobile Club of Queensland (RACQ) is urging policy holders to lodge insurance claims from the weekend’s storm as soon as possible.
“RACQ Insurance has already received more than 200 households claims and more than 150 motor claims, with many more expected over the next few days,” says Mike Sopinski, executive manager of insurance communications.
“The sooner customers lodge their claims, the sooner we can arrange for the assessment of storm damaged property.
“At this stage RACQ has received claims relating to both home and car damage” says Sopinski.
“We are seeing damage to homes from falling tree branches, hail, and wind damage from flying debris. We are also being notified of water entering homes through roofs as a result of clogged gutters and downpipes and damage to sheds and out buildings.”
