Why northern Melbourne operators use us

  • Heavy vehicle and trailer RWC on site

    Trucks over 4.5 t GVM and heavy trailers are inspected here, on a floor built for them, not squeezed into a car workshop.

  • Alignment and axle correction

    Most suburban workshops send this out. We do truck and trailer alignment and axle correction at Trawalla Ave, so tyre-wear problems get fixed the same visit.

  • RWC, repairs and wash in one visit

    Inspection first, quote, repair, re-check, wash. One drop-off instead of three, so the truck is not sitting for a week.

  • Family-owned since 2014, open Monday to Saturday

    Early drop-off from 6am, Monday to Saturday, and the phone is answered after hours. You deal with the people who do the work.

How it works

  1. Call or book online

    Tell us the vehicle, what you need, and when you need it back.

  2. Drop off at Trawalla Ave

    Bring the rego details and any previous rejection report. Early drop-off gets same-day turnaround where parts are on hand.

  3. Inspect, quote, repair

    Roadworthy inspection or diagnosis first. Anything that needs fixing is quoted before we touch it.

  4. Certificate or report

    Pass and you leave with the RWC. Fail and you leave with a written report and a booked re-check.
