Towing Confidence Starts Here
“More than 60% of caravans on the road are overweight — and most owners don’t even know it.”
This alarming stat isn’t just about compliance — it’s about safety, stability, and protecting your investment.
Towing a caravan should be a ticket to freedom — not an exercise in second-guessing your limits, juggling spreadsheets, or praying your setup passes a weigh-in. But too often, even seasoned travellers get caught out by confusing terminology, hidden weight traps, and unclear regulations.
The Problem
Weight limits, axle loads, tow ball mass, compliance plates… it’s a lot to manage. And if you get it wrong, the risks are real: from sway and poor braking to mechanical failures, fines, or voided insurance.
Yet despite the risk, most people are flying blind. Why? Because until now, there hasn’t been an easy, accurate way to stay on top of it all.
