What we do
At Weigh My Ride, your safety is our main priority. We help drivers, families, and travellers begin every journey with confidence by ensuring their vehicle and towing setup is properly balanced, compliant, and ready for the road.
When needed, we complement our weighing service with targeted product enhancements that won’t impact the comfort of your every day drive, and/or refer you to a trusted partner for an ATM or suspension upgrade if required to improve your safety, stability, and overall towing performance.
Whether you’re towing a caravan, horse float, camper, or trailer, we believe the right setup — and a clear understanding of your weights — is the foundation of safe, stress‑free travel.
We also support a range of businesses including caravan manufacturers, Councils, fleet operators, and trade services — with accurate, independent weighing and setup assessments. Our services help businesses protect their staff and customers, meet safety obligations, and deliver professionally presented, compliant vehicles and towing combinations.
With Weigh My Ride, you’re not just getting numbers — you’re gaining the knowledge, clarity, and peace of mind to enjoy the journey ahead.

Our Company Values
Safety First
Prioritising the safety of our customers and their vehicles in every service we provide.
Education
Imparting as much knowledge as possible to ensure our customers are well informed and able to tow with confidence.
Integrity
Conducting our business with the highest level of honesty and ethical standards, ensuring transparency in all our operations.
Customer Focus
Ensuring that our services meet the specific needs and expectations of each customer, offering personalised and attentive service.
Vehicle only weighs focus on allowable payload and even weight distribution for tow vehicles pre-purchase, accessorised 4WDs, trade/fleet vehicles, light trucks/machinery <8T GVM, and race cars.
Vehicle and trailer weighs (i.e. car and caravan/horse float/trailer) review the combined set up to ensure there is no unnecessary axle pressure, unbalanced load, suspension sag or weights that exceed the vehicle’s specified limits. This can apply stress to rear suspension and braking performance, and increase the risk of vehicle sway.
As part of your appointment, a qualified automotive technician and licensed vehicle tester will assess:
- individual wheel and tow ball weights to ensure your vehicles are within the legal limits as specified by the manufacturer;
- ride height of the vehicles to determine whether suspension upgrades or weight distribution systems are required;
- payload distribution to ensure the vehicles are appropriately balanced;
- appropriateness of the tow hitch setup (for vehicle-trailer combinations).
Each client receives a detailed report outlining their GVM, GCM, TBM, GTM, ATM and allowable payload, as well as recommendations to improve their ride height and comfortability, to ensure they are travelling safely and legally on the road and looking after the integrity of their tow and towed vehicles.
