These are a few of the frequent questions I see asked on the internet. Can I just go to a weigh station or public weighbridge?
In brief yes. The huge distinction right here is the way in which the caravan weighing is completed.

Yes, you'll have the ability to 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 automotive off the weighbridge to get your caravan ATM (Aggerate Trailer Mass) then reverse again on to the weighbridge and re-hitch the caravan … so lengthy as there is not a few trucks waiting to get on the scales. And you should get your weights to an accuracy of 20kgs.

After all of that you simply nonetheless won’t know your tow ball weight, axle weights or how the load is distributed. You may buy tow ball scales but I have seen huge discrepancies with the outcomes proven by these scales. They are not top adjustable and this will affect the accuracy of the scales.

I had a customer weigh his mixture after being weighed by Weighpro (I was nonetheless there) using tow ball scales and Reich scales he bought and the end result was some 300kg lower than the actual weight (I’m unsure if he did something wrong or if the scales had been out of calibration).

There’s a giant difference whenever you get weighed by Weighpro. For a begin we come to your own home (or appropriate location) we place scales under every wheel, weighing at every wheel and axle weights using the most recent certified wireless weigh pads and indicator. This lets you see how the load is distributed inside the caravan and car.

We also weigh the tow ball and the result's given in kilograms and as a percentage on the report (too mild on the tow ball can lead to trailer sway) … we also weigh to an accuracy of 1kg. We complete a method more detailed weigh offering GVM, TBM, GTM, ATM & GCM. Our program/app will then compare the actual weights with the manufacturers specifications to ensure you are safe and legal (All results detailed in our straightforward to read and perceive 3-page report including explanations on all these confusing acronyms).

We additionally encourage you to maneuver things round throughout the van if weigh distribution is not ideal, to see how one can improve your stability and tow ball weight of your caravan.

You can weigh with empty or full water tanks, add the bikes or kayaks no matter you want. You may wish to see the difference with a weight distribution hitch (WDH) linked then disconnected….no issues. We are additionally not going to hurry or stress you, and will fortunately take the time to clarify something you aren't sure of.

You will obtain your personal 3-page report proper there on the spot (no ready for it to arrive by way of e mail so that you simply can print it out your self in a few days). We are nonetheless there to explain anything you are not sure of.

Knowing your weights is not only a safety problem but additionally a legal issue… get it incorrect and it may price you in fines and demerit factors, worst nonetheless you could be concerned in an accident after which discover out that your insurance coverage has being declined.

Don’t have a caravan but wish to weigh a boat trailer, weigh a trailer or weigh a horse float (with the horses on board) or simply automobile weighing no issues in any respect, you'll get the same level of service.

We satisfaction ourselves on our professionalism, punctuality and friendliness.

Safe travels
