Yes and over 75 tankers a dayYes but you were weighing horses and carts.
Up to 5% ,nothing & up to 10% = £100 . The op's nearly paid that already.lolI think you will find its a lot cheaper than the fine for being overloaded.
Weighbridge will need regular calibration, that will not be cheap.
After all of two minutes weighing total, front and rear axle weight I was given the bill of £72. (£20 x 3 + VAT)
Is it me? Or does anyone else think this is over the top, cost-wise?

Which one is that one please.Front,back and together with printout. £5-00 in Lincoln. Nearly pay for your diesel to come down to visit Mike. ps Will bring that missing part to Misterton
Ours is free to weigh front, back and total.
£5 for a print-out which I can't help but think is pointless as it only says what you weighed-in at on the day, at a specific time, nothing to do with when you actually set out on the road - and this changes all the time with use of fuel/ addition of shopping etc, so can't be of any value as a defence to anything, can it?
Can anybody tell me why a printout is useful please?

If it doesn't you have a problem, but in practice if there is a steep ramp onto the plate that can give inaccurate axle readings as some of the weight could be transferred to the axle on the ramp.Out of interest can I ask when you drive on weigh the front, then weigh the rear axle does it add up to the total when weighed?
Might sound obvious, but I'd be interested if it works in practice

We use that one regularly only a couple of miles from home. I do find results can vary depending on how centred you are and how fast you drive over the plate it can vary by 30-40kg I always take the average of 3 readings.Ours in Lancing is open 24 hours a day and is free. We used it for the first time last week and found we had 100kg left to play with. We didn't have our electric bikes which are 44kg for the two of them or the new awning which is 25 kg. We did have a full tank of water and everything else we needed for a weekend away. We really have got to be careful in future.
Ah well, see, I have a pen & a notebook/logbook/journal for that ...Is it so you can remember it?!!

If you're paying the sort of money that the OP paid, these are worth a look?
