These are a few of the common questions I see asked on the web. Can I just go to a weigh station or public weighbridge?
In short yes. The big distinction here is the way in which the caravan weighing is finished.

Yes, you can drive onto a weighbridge first and weigh your automobile for 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 could be not a few vehicles waiting to get on the scales. And you should get your weights to an accuracy of 20kgs.

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

I had a customer weigh his mixture after being weighed by Weighpro (I was still there) utilizing tow ball scales and Reich scales he bought and the outcome was some 300kg less than the actual weight (I’m undecided if he did one thing incorrect or if the scales were out of calibration).

There’s a giant difference if you get weighed by Weighpro. For a begin we come to your home (or suitable location) we place scales under each wheel, weighing at every wheel and axle weights using the newest licensed wireless weigh pads and indicator. This lets you see how the load is distributed inside the caravan and automobile.

We also weigh the tow ball and the result is given in kilograms and as a share on the report (too mild on the tow ball may end up in trailer sway) … we additionally weigh to an accuracy of 1kg. We full a means more detailed weigh offering GVM, TBM, GTM, ATM & GCM. Our program/app will then compare the actual weights with the producers specs to ensure you are safe and authorized (All outcomes detailed in our straightforward to read and perceive 3-page report together with explanations on all these confusing acronyms).

We additionally encourage you to maneuver things round throughout the van if weigh distribution is not best, to see how one can improve 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 want. You might prefer to see the distinction with a weight distribution hitch (WDH) linked then disconnected….no problems. We are additionally not going to rush or strain you, and can happily take the time to clarify anything you are not sure of.

You will receive your personal 3-page report right there on the spot (no ready for it to arrive by way of email so that you just can print it out yourself in a couple of days). We are still there to elucidate anything you aren't positive of.

Knowing your weights is not only a safety issue but additionally a authorized issue… get it wrong and it could cost you in fines and demerit factors, worst still you would be involved in an accident after which discover out that your insurance coverage has being declined.

Don’t have a caravan however wish to weigh a ship trailer, weigh a trailer or weigh a horse float (with the horses on board) or just automobile weighing no issues in any respect, you're going to get the identical stage of service.

We delight ourselves on our professionalism, punctuality and friendliness.

Safe travels
