What's covered

Having the right cover in place means you’re helping to protect your belongings if they’re accidentally damaged, lost or stolen. Here’s a summary of the cover and features with this insurance. You can also add optional extras to suit your needs.

For full details of the terms, conditions and exclusions, please see the full policy document – it’s simple and easy to understand.

What's included

  • Cover for accidental loss or damage to your contents anywhere in New Zealand, up to your agreed sum insured amount.
  • New-for-old replacement cover for many of your contents. 
  • Some items are covered for their indemnity value – this means the cost of the item when it was new, less an amount for depreciation, wear and tear. 
  • The ability to specify certain items (like jewellery, bicycles and photographic equipment) for a higher value if you need more cover than the policy limit.
  • Up to $10,000 cover for your home office furniture and equipment.
  • Up to $3,000 cover for gradual damage to your contents caused by water leaking or overflowing from internal water pipes. 
  • Up to $2,000 cover to replace your keys and locks if your keys are stolen, lost, or duplicated without your agreement. 
  • Cover for reasonable extra costs of temporary accommodation for up to 12 months if you own and live at the home, and up to one month if you legally rent the home you live in. 
  • Legal liability cover up to $2 million for loss or damage to someone else’s property, and up to $1 million for accidental bodily injury.
  • If you need to claim under more than one ANZ policy from Vero for loss or damage caused by a single event at the same location, you’ll only pay one excess.

Optional extras

Excess refund

  • With Excess refund, you don't pay your agreed excess when you make a claim. This only applies if your claim is higher than your agreed excess amount. 
  • Other excess charges may still apply.

Moving house extension

  • Option to have additional cover for your contents while you’re moving to a new home.
  • Cover for accidental loss or damage while in transit if your contents have been professionally packed and transported.
  • Cover for loss or damage while in transit due to fire, or the removal vehicle being in an accident or overturning, if you’ve packed your contents yourself and arranged transport with a removal company.

Storage of contents

  • Extend the cover available for contents in storage.
  • If your contents are in an approved secure storage facility, cover includes loss or damage caused by fire, lightning or explosion, and theft – if there’s been forcible and violent entry to the storage facility.

Get the right sum insured for you

To choose your sum insured, first work out an estimated value of your belongings: 

  • For common household items, use the CIRCA calculator— which gives estimated values. For each item you own, you can choose average, quality, or prestige.
  • For items you want to specify on your policy, e.g. jewellery, it’s a good idea to ask a registered valuer as you might also need to provide a valuation if you have a claim.

Policy limits and specified items

If you wish to insure an item for more than its policy limit, you can often choose to pay an extra premium and specify the item on your policy. This item then becomes a “specified item” with its own policy limit.

This list shows the most Vero will pay for the listed items, unless they are specified on your schedule for another amount. The limits cover the item and its accessories:

  • Each item of jewellery or watch – $3,000
    For any one event, Vero will pay up to 15% of the contents sum insured shown on your schedule, or $15,000 – whichever is greater.
  • Each item of photographic or video camera equipment – $3,000
    Vero count a camera body and a standard lens as one item. Any extra lens not permanently attached to a camera body, or one that is designed to be interchangeable, Vero count as its own item.
  • Any drone – $3,000
  • Any coin or stamp collection – $3,000 in total
  • Any bicycle, including any e-bike – $3,000
  • Any canoe, kayak, surfboard, surf ski, kite surfer, paddle board, windsurfer, or similar watercraft – $3,000
  • Unset precious stones, bullion or gold or silver (other than goldware or silverware), or precious metals – $1,000 in total

This list shows the most Vero will pay for the listed items. Vero will never increase the limits for these items. The limits include the item and its accessories:

  • Any boat (other than canoes, kayaks, surfboards, surf skis, kite surfers, paddle boards, windsurfers, or similar watercraft) – $3,000
    Under ANZ Asset Protector Contents insurance, Vero won’t cover any boat that has a market value of more than $3,000.
  • Motor and marine parts and accessories (including child car seats) while detached from any vehicle or boat – $2,000 in total
  • All money, negotiable securities, travellers’ cheques or travel tickets, certificates, or documents – $1,000 in total
