Vehicle & Caravan Weight Check
Do you know the weight of your caravan when its fully loaded? Unfortunately, this critical element of safe towing is overlooked by many caravan enthusiasts. Over loading is one of the main causes of caravan accidents, sometimes with deadly consequences. It is important to note that if your caravan is over loaded and you are involved in an accident, then your insurance may not cover the damage to your van or damage to the property of other road users. It is a legal requirement that you make sure that your caravan is within the safety towing limits as specified by the manufacture. In additon to correct overall weight, you should ensure appropriate weight distribution. Failure to take due care can result in poor towing performance and if caught at a QLD Police mobile weighing station, fines of between $700 and $1500 and 4 points licence penalty for being overweight may apply.
At RNR Refinish we can weigh both your caravan and towing vehicle and you will receive a printed docket with all findings. This provides our customers with peace of mind that their towing setup is roadworthy. Should the report state that your setup is overweight, then you have a great opportunity to make weigh adjustments before venturing out on your road trip.
