In quick sure. The massive difference here is the means in which in which the caravan weighing is completed.


Yes, you probably can drive onto a weighbridge first and weigh your automobile 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 … as long as there's not a couple of vehicles waiting to get on the scales. And you must 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 weight is distributed. You might buy tow ball scales however I have seen big discrepancies with the results proven by these scales. They aren't height adjustable and this will have an effect on the accuracy of the scales.

I had a customer weigh his combination after being weighed by Weighpro (I was nonetheless there) utilizing tow ball scales and Reich scales he purchased and the outcome was some 300kg lower than the precise weight (I’m undecided if he did one thing wrong or if the scales have been out of calibration).

There’s a giant distinction whenever you get weighed by Weighpro. For a begin we come to your house (or suitable location) we place scales under each wheel, weighing at every wheel and axle weights using the latest certified wireless weigh pads and indicator. This allows you to see how the load is distributed within 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 gentle on the tow ball may end up in 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 precise weights with the manufacturers specifications to ensure you are protected and authorized (All results detailed in our straightforward to read and perceive 3-page report together with explanations on all these confusing acronyms).

We also encourage you to move things around inside the van if weigh distribution just isn't best, to see how you can improve 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 might like to see the difference with a weight distribution hitch (WDH) connected then disconnected….no problems. We are also not going to hurry or strain you, and will happily take the time to clarify anything you are not positive of.

You will obtain your personal 3-page report right there on the spot (no waiting for it to arrive through e mail for you to print it out yourself in a few days). We are nonetheless there to explain anything you are not positive of.

Knowing your weights is not just a security concern but in addition a legal issue… get it incorrect and it could value you in fines and demerit points, worst nonetheless you can be involved in an accident and then discover out that your insurance has being declined.

Don’t have a caravan however want to weigh a ship trailer, weigh a trailer or weigh a horse float (with the horses on board) or simply vehicle weighing no issues in any respect, you'll get the identical level of service.

We satisfaction ourselves on our professionalism, punctuality and friendliness.
