Moving is already a juggling act—between logistics, emotions, and a to-do list that never ends, the last thing you need is a flood damaging your precious belongings while in storage. But with Australia’s increasingly volatile weather, this is a risk you can’t afford to ignore.
Whether it’s a suburban garage or a state-of-the-art storage unit, stored items are still vulnerable. That’s why choosing storage insurance that includes flood protection isn’t just smart—it’s essential.
From Brisbane’s subtropical storms to Melbourne’s sudden downpours, Australia’s climate has become more unpredictable than ever. According to the Bureau of Meteorology, extreme weather events are increasing in frequency and intensity—especially in coastal and low-lying urban areas.
This trend spells trouble for families caught between homes. Often, belongings are stored temporarily in facilities that may not be equipped to handle sudden flooding or water ingress. Without the right insurance, you could be left high and dry.
Not always. Many home policies exclude coverage for items stored off-premises or only cover them under strict conditions.
While reputable facilities offer security and pest control, very few take responsibility for weather-related damage. That liability stays with you.
Flash floods can happen anywhere—particularly in areas with poor drainage, heavy rain, or nearby watercourses.

“We stored everything after selling our home—furniture, photos, even my kids’ baby clothes. A week later, a freak storm flooded part of the facility. I panicked, but SSIA made the claims process effortless. We had a payout approved within days. I’ll never store without them again.”
