This is a very thorough and professional service provided with the provider obviously well versed and expert in the... field (and very ready to provide any remedial advice required). A very thorough report is provided together with expert advice. The portability of the equipment enables the service to come to you, negating the inconvenience of having to hook up and tow, often a considerable distance, to a fixed weighbridge.I would recommend this service to all caravan owners, as interstate enforcement becomes more intense in recent years. I thought I was comfortably within all weight limits but found my complacency to be misplaced. Even though the margins of my errors were not large and can be remedied fairly easily, had I been picked up on the road while touring, it would have put me to severe inconvenience.Well worth the modest cost involved, which is much less than any fine which might be imposed for non-compliance.read more

Mac from Weigh Station came up to Broadford and weighed my car and caravan. I found him to be very knowledgeable,... thorough and professional throughout the entire process, which lasted about 90 minutes. Mac answered all my questions and provided some really good explanations of the multitude of terms and acronyms used in this area. Having Weigh Station come to me simplified the whole process as well. Once finished I was provided with a 3 page report (hard copy and electronically) that showed everything and was easy to read. The report will make it easy to refer back to in the future. I highly recommend everyone with caravans to get them weighed, and in my opinion Weigh Station is the obvious choice to do it.Do yourself a favour and give Mac a ring.read more

Mac runs a fantastic service that a can say is an absolute must if you have a caravan and use it for any matter of... travel. I had been using weigh bridges for months during the planning and preparation of our extended trip, my experience with these weigh bridges now (after using Weigh Statin) is they are a guide at best! Mac's accurate service showing a difference of 100kg when he properly measured the tow ball mass this making a massive difference to my GVM in combination.Mac spent time with us shifting cargo around, reviewing weight results as we went to find the best packing strategy for our setup. This was absolutely awesome and takes the guess work out. I highly recommend his service, a must for responsible car and caravan owners.read more

We had Mac come out to weigh our van and car prior to going on the road full time. We’d previously used public weigh... stations a couple of times and thought we were close to our limits. Turns out we are under by quite a bit with some room to move. Mac explained all aspects of the process in simple terms and also helped us to eliminate many of the common myths you hear of. Highly recommend this service for anyone towing a load. It’s peace of mind.read more
