DHA – your housing solution. Changes from 1 July 2010
If you have received your posting before 1 July 2010 and are moving before 31 August 2010, DHA will manage your relocation. Any postings received after 1 July 2010 will be managed by Toll Transitions.
DHA was established in 1988 with the aim of improving the quality and selection of housing for Defence members and their families. Now, over 20 years on, DHA manages approximately 17, 300 residences around Australia and provides a range of services to help ease the pressure on Defence families – we will support you and your family throughout your tenancy, from moving in, to living in, and then moving out of your home. While our level of support for you and your family will not change, you will see some changes to the Defence relocations process. Where DHA managed relocations administration in the past, Toll Transitions will now be your relocations service provider. To help you understand how this may impact you and your family, we’ve put together a reference guide for you and your family.
If you need support throughout your tenancy, then our staff can assist you. You can phone our information line 139 DHA (139 342) for advice. DHA also has Housing Management Centres (HMCs) and local offices located near major Defence establishments to provide effective support for you and your family wherever you need it. For advice on your relocations, contact Toll Transitions on Freecall 1800 819 167 or visit the Toll Transitions website where you’ll also find a list of Toll Transitions Relocation Service Centres in your area.
