Tow safe. Tow legal.
Take the guesswork out of towing. We bring certified scales to you, so you can tow safely and stay on the right side of the rules.
Basic weigh-ins start from $100. Caravans aren’t the only thing we weigh, we weigh tow vehicles, trailers, boats, horse floats. If it’s on wheels and under 8 tonnes, we’ll weigh it.
Call 027 233 8552 or email enquiries@weighsafe.co.nz and we’ll check availability and get you booked in.
Why weighing matters.
Knowing your actual weights helps you:
-
Stay compliant with NZ legal requirements
-
Improve safety for you, your passengers, and others on the road
-
Protect your vehicle, tyres, brakes, and suspension
-
Tow more smoothly and confidently
Many setups are overloaded without the owner realising, until it’s too late.
Accurate. Certified. Reliable.
We use Australian-made certified scales that:
-
Weigh up to 8000kg
-
Measure in 1kg increments
-
Provide precise, trustworthy results
Pricing
Our basic weigh service starts at $100 for single vehicles. For vehicles towing a caravan or trailer, pricing starts from $150.
Because every setup is different, pricing may vary depending on your needs, the type of vehicle or trailer, and call-out distance.

About Weigh Safe.
Weigh Safe was born out of our own need to ensure our new caravan was legal and safe to tow.
We’ve been involved in caravanning for many years and understand how confusing weight limits, terminology, and compliance can be.
That’s why we don’t just weigh caravans. We weigh all types of vehicles and trailers, because safety and compliance matter to everyone on the road.
