At Hitched Caravans, we have acquired top-of-the-line slim scales that can measure up to 2t per pad with minimal variance of 1kg.
These advanced scales enable us to provide precise measurements for GVM, GTM, ATM, GCM, and TBM etc.
Our investment in this technology is a reflection of our commitment to providing our customers with accurate and reliable information about their caravan’s weight and towing capacity. With our state-of-the-art scales, we can ensure that your caravan is always within safe and legal weight limits.
To tow legally and safely, understanding your caravan’s weight is essential. Caravans typically have a limited carrying capacity (payload), and it’s surprisingly easy to overload them, especially with common additions like extra solar panels, water tanks, or other accessories. These extras can significantly reduce your available carrying capacity.
There are instances where caravans may exceed their maximum weight even when empty, posing a serious challenge as there’s no straightforward solution. We’ve encountered caravans with inaccurately labeled ID plates or those with such minimal payload that carrying essential items becomes a problem.
Knowing the exact weight of your caravan is crucial to determine if your tow vehicle is appropriate and whether you can transport all your necessities. Our weighing service provides you with this vital information, ensuring you can tow with confidence and safety.
