- **Event Name**: Free Caravan Weighing Days 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 01 May, 2026 at 10:30 pm – Sun, 03 May, 2026 at 05:00 am (+10:00)
- **Event Description**: Caravanners in Leeton Shire will again be offered free road safety and caravanning advice at the next caravan weighing days held on 2 & 3 May 2026.

Leeton Shire Council and Transport for NSW will co-host the caravan weighing days with “Your Weigh Mobile Vehicle Weighing” to educate caravanners about correctly calculating their caravan’s weight, how to load their caravan for even weight distribution, safe driving tips while towing, and ways to reduce the risk of being involved in a crash. 

Leeton Shire Council Road Safety Officer Ashlee Hayllar said that as caravanning grows in popularity, so does the need to ensure caravans are being operated safely. 

“Simple things like adding a toolbox or BBQ to the van, popping a kayak on the roof or travelling with full water tanks can cause the caravan, tow vehicle or combination to become overweight or non-compliant and may increase the risk of a crash,” Mrs Hayllar said.  

“An incorrectly loaded caravan can lead to snaking, swaying or loss of control of your caravan and vehicle. 

“We welcome the owners of registered caravans in Leeton Shire to come forward to learn some vital tips that could save lives.

“Driving while towing a caravan is a different experience to normal driving and requires a higher level of knowledge and skill, a need for greater stopping distances, and consideration of environmental factors such as high winds, wet roads and uneven surfaces,” Mrs Hayllar said. 

“As part of our free weighing days, owners can learn the actual aggregate trailer mass (ATM) of their caravan, actual gross trailer mass (GTM), actual gross vehicle mass (GVM), actual ball weight and actual gross combination mass (GCM) of their caravan and vehicle. 

“These days are a great opportunity to learn more about your caravan and more about safe driving, for the benefit of everyone on the road.” 

The caravan weighing days will be held at the Leeton Pool Carpark on Palm Avenue.

Bookings are essential and can be conducted online through Calendly or by phoning Your Weigh Vehicle Weighing on 0419 473 397.

More information on safe caravanning is available on the Transport for NSW website.
