What we inspect

Roadworthys on anything with wheels in Gladstone

In Queensland it's officially a safety certificate, but everyone calls it a roadworthy. You need one to sell a registered vehicle or to put an unregistered one back on the road, and we'll do it wherever the vehicle is parked, at home, at work or down at the ramp.

Cars, utes and 4WDs

The everyday one. Selling the car, re-registering it, or getting the kids' first car on the road, we'll inspect it in your driveway.

Caravans and campers

We're caravan and trailer specialists, so there's no hitching up and towing it across town. We'll check it where it's parked.

Boat and box trailers

Boat trailers, box trailers, small and large. We also do trailer measure-ups.

Motorbikes and trikes

Bikes and trikes get the same once-over as the cars, at your place.

Trucks

Light to heavy trucks, plus measure-ups for medium trucks. Give us a call with what you've got.

Taxis

Taxi inspections too, done wherever the car's parked up.

Not sure if we do yours? Just ask.

Why a mobile roadworthy

Four things you skip when the inspector comes to you

A roadworthy should be the easy part of selling a car. Here's what you won't be doing.

  • 1

    No towing a caravan across town

    Vans, campers and boat trailers are awkward to move. We'd rather come to them.

  • 2

    No half a day in a waiting room

    You carry on at home while we go over it out the front.

  • 3

    No waiting on paperwork

    The certificate's emailed while we're still there, so the sale can go ahead.

  • 4

    No guesswork on who's checking it

    Every inspection's done by a qualified mechanic and vehicle inspector.

Our workshop

Servicing at 4 French St, South Gladstone

We've opened a servicing centre at 4 French Street, with a hoist and room to work. Bring the car, bike, caravan, trailer or truck in for a service or repairs, or drop it in for the roadworthy if that's easier than us coming out.

Roadworthy questions we get asked

Is a roadworthy the same as a safety certificate?

Yes. In Queensland the official name is a safety certificate, but most people still call it a roadworthy, an RWC or a roady.

Do I have to bring the vehicle to you?

No. We come to you around Gladstone and Boyne Island. If you'd rather drop it off, you can bring it to 4 French St, South Gladstone.

How do I pay?

You can pay electronically on the spot, and the certificate's emailed to you before we leave.

What does it cost?

It depends on what we're inspecting. Call or text with the vehicle and we'll tell you the cost before we book you in.
