Caravan Towing and Compliance Centre
Weigh to Go was established at the Aussie Escape Caravan facility in Brendale, North Brisbane in 2019. This specialist facility has one of the only dedictated caravan weighing stations in Brisbane.
The specialist technicians at Weigh to Go generally find that up to 65% of all fully loaded caravans they weigh are not road legal. This is often a surprise to the owner who then has to work out how to reduce the weight of the caravan. Our experienced staff will provide the caravan owner with the options that will help them to set up their caravan so that it’s both road legal and safe before their next road trip.
The friendly team at Weigh to Go have a dedicated workshop where they fit caravan accessories such as Tow Bars, Reversing Cameras, Weight Distribution Bars and Air Bag Load Assist to name but a few.
