Australian Government Mobile Offices

The Australian Government has been supporting rural communities through mobile drought assistance servicing since November 2006, with 2 Mobile Offices travelling extensively throughout country Australia. In response to the diverse needs of rural customers, these Mobile Offices now provide a broader range of government payments and services, making it easier for people to conduct their business with Centrelink.

The Australian Government recognises that people in rural communities deserve the best possible access to government payments and services, and that many rural residents are affected by remoteness and isolation and may need to travel greater distances to access vital services.
