cell car weighing
These are some of the widespread questions I see requested on the internet. Can I just go to a weigh station or public weighbridge?
In quick yes. The huge distinction right here is the way in which the caravan weighing is finished.

Yes, you can drive onto a weighbridge first and weigh your car 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 back on to the weighbridge and re-hitch the caravan … as lengthy as there's 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 load is distributed. You might purchase tow ball scales however I truly have seen large discrepancies with the results shown by these scales. They usually are not peak adjustable and this can affect the accuracy of the scales.

I had a customer weigh his combination after being weighed by Weighpro (I was still there) using tow ball scales and Reich scales he bought and the end result was some 300kg lower than the precise weight (I’m undecided if he did something mistaken or if the scales have been out of calibration).

There’s an enormous distinction whenever you get weighed by Weighpro. For a begin we come to your house (or appropriate location) we place scales beneath every wheel, weighing at every wheel and axle weights utilizing the newest licensed wi-fi weigh pads and indicator. This lets you see how the load is distributed throughout the caravan and automotive.

We additionally weigh the tow ball and the result's given in kilograms and as a share on the report (too light on the tow ball may find yourself in 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 precise weights with the manufacturers specs to be certain to are secure and authorized (All results detailed in our simple to read and perceive 3-page report together with explanations on all those confusing acronyms).

We additionally encourage you to maneuver things round within the van if weigh distribution isn't best, to see how you 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 need. You might like to see the distinction with a weight distribution hitch (WDH) related then disconnected….no issues. We are also not going to hurry or pressure you, and can fortunately take the time to clarify anything you are not positive of.

You will obtain your private 3-page report proper there on the spot (no ready for it to arrive via e-mail so that you just can print it out your self in a few days). We are still there to clarify something you aren't certain of.

Knowing your weights is not only a security problem but also a authorized issue… get it wrong and it might cost you in fines and demerit factors, worst nonetheless you could be involved in an accident and then find out that your insurance 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 vehicle weighing no problems at all, you'll get the same degree of service.

We delight ourselves on our professionalism, punctuality and friendliness.

Safe travels
