How much do your ladders weigh ?      20kg
How much does your ladder rack weigh ? 30kg

I've just fitted a new 2-bar ladder rack with a small roller - couldn't elide how much it weighed .

Persons forget about the ladders and ladder rack

THE WEIGH BRIDGE IS ALL ABOUT "GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT " .. Not payload , but both are linked to each other

Gross vehicle weight

I'm still trying to get some spare time to get to the weigh bridge. I'm curios, but not enough to miss work time.lol

It's hectic before crimbo.

I've added everything up and should be ok, but still want to be sure.

Is your battery a separate system battery or the van battery?  That will add a few more kilo's.  I wouldn't want to be within 25kg of the limit as that can easily be swallowed up without thinking about it.

I personally think it's more of a problem being 4 years old and driving the van though.
