as above Any HGV hauliers will have a weighbridge.Leave the water out and then just add 350kg. Get each axle weighed as well.
I squeezed a 350L tank into the back of the Berlingo multispace  :

JEFF were you within the weight limit at 350 litres? I have a multispace (used as van with blacked out windows and sign written, everyone thinks its a van) it would be good to know. thank you

I used the same van with a 400ltr tank for over 5 years Dazmond, had my ladders & trad gear too.

Taking legal issues out of the equation, the van will handle it no problem.

so guys my van has a 625kg payload so im trying to keep things as simple as possible to be within the van weight limits.

350L TANK(375KG INCLU TANK WEIGHT WHEN FULL)

TROLLEY(50KG)

HOSE/REEL(30KG)

TRAD GEAR(20KG)

LADDERS(25KG)

WARNING CONE(10KG)

ME(110KG)

all that lot takes me to 620kg and doesnt include fuel and roofrack so it looks like i should not fill the tank to the brim and fill to around 300L so ill be slightly underweight overall.of course as the day goes on itll get lighter and lighter.also i wont be able to give anybody a lift with a full tank in the back or i will be overweight unless i take trolley and hose reel out.

i know one thing ill be making sure i get a van with a bigger payload when i get another.

regards

Have a dump before you leave in the morning.
Also, is it possible to work it so that you start work very close to your water supply each day?

Roof bars? ply lining? tank of fuel? spare wheel?

[AuRavelling79]

No roof bars - I'm ladderless
No ply lining
Spare wheel - included in manufacturer's weights
Tank of fuel would be about 60 litres or 51Kg so I never fill to the brim - especially first thing in the am or when I carry a second barrel.

daz i would not take trolley apart;
i have a pump in a box from red hat on e bay;really good also if it packs in you have
a spare; i still use trolley most.
also know its a dirty word but use ladders too
