Why Choose Our Mobile Caravan Weight Check Services?
In a country as vast as Australia, where caravanning is a way of life, knowing your vehicle’s limits is non-negotiable. Whether you’re towing a sleek off-road caravan through the Outback or a family campervan along the Great Ocean Road, overloading can lead to:
- Substantial fines from authorities like the NHVR (National Heavy Vehicle Regulator).
- Safety risks for you, your loved ones, and other drivers – think reduced braking, sway, and handling issues.
- Insurance voids – many policies exclude coverage for non-compliant loads.

We’re fully mobile, serving Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and beyond – up to 6 tonnes for caravans, boats, horse floats, tradie trailers, motorhomes, and more.

- Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM): The maximum allowable weight of your tow vehicle—know if you’re over the limit.

- Aggregate Trailer Mass (ATM): The max weight your caravan can handle when fully loaded and unhitched.
- Gross Combined Mass (GCM): The total allowable weight of your vehicle plus caravan combined.

How long does a mobile weigh-in take?
Typically 30-45 minutes, depending on your vehicle’s complexity. We’ll arrive equipped and ready.
