THE FRONT BOOT
FLOOD ACCOMMODATION CALL
Online RV rental platform Camplify is calling on van owners , dealers and manufacturers to provide temporary emergency accommodation for flood-impacted residents and relief workers , in the wake of the floods that have ravaged large areas of Queensland and New South Wales .
The company has established the Camplify Flood Relief Program , which allows Camplify users – existing and prospective – the opportunity to share their van and help a family in need .
Because affected Australians will need to be relocated away from their homes , Camplify is working with BIG4 and other industry partners to provide safe locations for the vans to be parked , where possible .
Camplify is asking van owners around the affected areas to register their interest . The Camplify team will work with local partners and organisations to place vans with those in need , as well as coordinate with insurance providers – all associated costs will be covered .
“ As a supplier of mobile accommodation , albeit usually for vacations , we see an opportunity to use our community ’ s assets to help those suffering from the results of the flooding ,” Camplify CEO Justin Hales said .
“ We will coordinate everything from insurance to locating flood-affected people in need and helping deliver these vans to them . We hope that we can offer hope and shelter during such a tragic time .”
