These are a number of the common questions I see asked on the internet. Can I simply go to a weigh station or public weighbridge?
In quick sure. The huge difference here is the best way in which the caravan weighing is completed.

Yes, you possibly can drive onto a weighbridge first and weigh your automotive on 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 car off the weighbridge to get your caravan ATM (Aggerate Trailer Mass) then reverse back on to the weighbridge and re-hitch the caravan … so lengthy as there is not a couple of vans ready to get on the scales. And you want to get your weights to an accuracy of 20kgs.

After all of that you nonetheless won’t know your tow ball weight, axle weights or how the burden is distributed. You could buy tow ball scales however I even have seen large discrepancies with the results shown by these scales. They usually are not peak adjustable and it will affect the accuracy of the scales.

I had a buyer weigh his mixture after being weighed by Weighpro (I was still there) using tow ball scales and Reich scales he purchased and the result was some 300kg lower than the actual weight (I’m not sure if he did one thing wrong or if the scales were out of calibration).

There’s a giant distinction whenever you get weighed by Weighpro. For a start we come to your house (or suitable location) we place scales beneath every wheel, weighing at every wheel and axle weights using the most recent licensed wi-fi weigh pads and indicator. This lets you see how the load is distributed throughout the caravan and car.

We additionally weigh the tow ball and the result is given in kilograms and as a share on the report (too light on the tow ball can lead to trailer sway) … we also weigh to an accuracy of 1kg. We complete a much more detailed weigh providing GVM, TBM, GTM, ATM & GCM. Our program/app will then examine the actual weights with the manufacturers specifications to ensure you are secure and authorized (All results detailed in our simple to learn and perceive 3-page report together with explanations on all these confusing acronyms).

We additionally encourage you to maneuver issues round within the van if weigh distribution isn't ideal, to see how one can enhance your balance and tow ball weight of your caravan.

You can weigh with empty or full water tanks, add the bikes or kayaks whatever you want. You may prefer to see the difference with a weight distribution hitch (WDH) related then disconnected….no issues. We are also not going to rush or strain you, and will fortunately take the time to explain something you are not sure of.

You will obtain your private 3-page report proper there on the spot (no ready for it to reach via e-mail so that you can print it out yourself in a few days). We are nonetheless there to elucidate anything you aren't certain of.

Knowing your weights is not just a safety issue but additionally a legal issue… get it mistaken and it could value you in fines and demerit factors, worst still you would be involved in an accident after which find out that your insurance coverage has being declined.

Don’t have a caravan but need to weigh a boat trailer, weigh a trailer or weigh a horse float (with the horses on board) or just automobile weighing no issues in any respect, you will get the same stage of service.

We delight ourselves on our professionalism, punctuality and friendliness.

Safe travels
