BOBS Weighbridge:

Located at Ramakukane Road, opposite Oriental Plaza in Block 3 Industrial, the BOBS weighbridge services include the weighing of bulk weights, loaded or empty haulage trucks or trailers.
The verification of these weighbridges gives third party assurance for both the trader and the purchaser and also aids in enforcement of other legislation on loading of vehicles.

A verification sticker is applied to weighbridges which meet these requirements. If a weighbridge fails verification or re-verification it is rejected and a rejection sticker is applied. Rejected weighbridges shall not be used for trade until they have been repaired and re-verified to assure their continued compliance with requirements.
