Precise Mobile Vehicle Weighing Services
Our SUV and Trailer Weighing Services
We use SA-approved mobile scales that are regularly calibrated to determine all of the following set weight definitions:
GVM
The Gross Vehicle Mass is the vehicle's tare weight with all its trimmings, spare wheel, winch and maximum payload (including passengers), as measured on all four wheels.
TBM
The Tow Bar Mass is the weight of the fully loaded trailer measured at the tow bar. It should not exceed 15% of the GTM and must be included when calculating the GVM.
GTM
The Gross Trailer Mass is the trailer's combined weight and full payload, as measured across the axles.
ATM
The Aggregate Trailer Mass is the GTM plus the TBM.
GCM
The Gross Combination Mass is the GVM plus the GTM and is a critical calculation when towing a trailer or caravan. We will assist you with this calculation using manufacturer-derived and direct measurements.
GVMC
The Gross Vehicle Mass Combined is the GVM plus the TBM.
