These are some of the frequent questions I see requested on the web. Can I simply go to a weigh station or public weighbridge?
In brief sure. The big difference here is the method in which in which the caravan weighing is finished.

Yes, you presumably can drive onto a weighbridge first and weigh your automobile in your GVM (Gross Vehicle Mass) than drive on with the caravan and get your GCM (Gross Combination Mass), then unhitch the caravan and drive your automobile off the weighbridge to get your caravan ATM (Aggerate Trailer Mass) then reverse again on to the weighbridge and re-hitch the caravan … as lengthy as there may be not a few vans ready to get on the scales. And you should get your weights to an accuracy of 20kgs.

After all of that you just still won’t know your tow ball weight, axle weights or how the load is distributed. You could purchase tow ball scales however I have seen big discrepancies with the outcomes proven by these scales. They usually are not height adjustable and this can have an effect on the accuracy of the scales.

I had a buyer weigh his mixture after being weighed by Weighpro (I was nonetheless there) utilizing tow ball scales and Reich scales he purchased and the end result was some 300kg lower than the precise weight (I’m unsure if he did one thing incorrect or if the scales were out of calibration).


There’s a big distinction whenever you get weighed by Weighpro. For a start we come to your home (or appropriate location) we place scales underneath every wheel, weighing at every wheel and axle weights using the latest licensed wi-fi weigh pads and indicator. This allows you to see how the load is distributed throughout the caravan and automobile.

We additionally weigh the tow ball and the result is given in kilograms and as a share on the report (too mild on the tow ball can lead to trailer sway) … we also weigh to an accuracy of 1kg. We full a a lot more detailed weigh providing GVM, TBM, GTM, ATM & GCM. Our program/app will then evaluate the precise weights with the manufacturers specs to make sure you are secure and authorized (All results detailed in our straightforward to learn and perceive 3-page report including explanations on all these confusing acronyms).

We also encourage you to maneuver things round inside the van if weigh distribution just isn't ideal, to see how one can enhance your steadiness and tow ball weight of your caravan.

You can weigh with empty or full water tanks, add the bikes or kayaks whatever you need. You might like to see the difference with a weight distribution hitch (WDH) linked then disconnected….no issues. We are additionally not going to hurry or strain you, and can fortunately take the time to clarify something you are not positive of.

You will obtain your private 3-page report right there on the spot (no waiting for it to reach via e mail for you to print it out yourself in a couple of days). We are nonetheless there to elucidate anything you aren't sure of.

Knowing your weights is not only a security concern but in addition a authorized issue… get it mistaken and it might price you in fines and demerit points, worst still you would be concerned in an accident and then find out that your insurance coverage has being declined.

Don’t have a caravan but need to weigh a ship trailer, weigh a trailer or weigh a horse float (with the horses on board) or just car weighing no problems at all, you will get the identical level of service.

We delight ourselves on our professionalism, punctuality and friendliness.

Safe travels
