Our network of over 100 multi-skilled engineers, locally based across the UK, ensures rapid, on-site assistance when you need it most.

We are certified for both initial verification and reverification of weighbridges with the largest weighbridge test unit fleet in the UK. This resource allows us to reverify weighbridges quickly after repair work has been carried out, ensuring minimal equipment downtime and disruption to your operations.

Avery Weigh-Tronix offers two tiers of weighbridge support with BridgeCare for essential reliability and BridgeCare Total for business-critical systems, which includes a 97% uptime guarantee and all-inclusive cover for service calls, parts, and labor, ensuring operational downtime is kept to a minimum.

We pride ourselves on having the UK’s best training centre for our engineers, ensuring our team remains at the forefront of industry advancements. With over 200 years of industry experience, our engineers bring unparalleled knowledge and skill to maintaining and optimising weighing equipment.

From routine maintenance to emergency repairs, Avery Weigh-Tronix combines advanced tooling, product expertise and excellent customer service to ensure your weighbridge operates reliably and efficiently, providing peace of mind and maximising your operations. 

In addition to calibrating Avery Weigh-Tronix weighbridges, we can also calibrate and provide support on all competitor weighbridge models too.

For businesses with weighbridges, axle weighbridges and platforms over 5 tonnes, we offer tailored support packages to meet the specific needs of heavy capacity weighing operations. BridgeCare and BridgeCare Total help to keep your business operational, whether you are completely reliant on your weighbridge being fully operational, or seriously inconvenienced by weighbridge faults or failure.

We are confident in our ability to support your opertaion when you need us most and that’s why, for our BridgeCare Total customers, we will guarantee your equipment uptime will be 97% or higher for the duration of your service agreement, or we will refund you a proportion of your annual fee. 

BridgeCare Total is our fully inclusive cover for business-critical weighbridge systems. This high level of support offers a unique uptime guarantee, ensuring we deliver 97% operational uptime, or we will refund a proportion of your annual fee. All service calls, parts and labour are included as part of the package, so you will never be caught out by unexpected costs.

BridgeCare is our comprehensive weighbridge cover for when weighbridge failure or fault poses a serious inconvenience to your operations. This level of support support enables you to optimise your weighbridge uptime through regular preventative maintenance and servicing visits. We also include call outs as part of the deal and we will provide you discounts on repair services, should you need them.

All of our calibration and verification services are conducted with weights uniquely identified and traceable to National Standards of Mass. All of our test weights are calibrated by UKAS / ISO17025 accredited laboratories to ensure you receive the most accurate weight readings on your weighing devices.

Avery Weigh-Tronix is an approved verifier, which allows us to conduct ‘self verification’ on weighbridges and other weighing or measuring instruments. Using a supplier who has self verification means that you won’t need to wait for a third-party verifier to complete the job. This reduces downtime, improves efficiency, and maintains operational continuity. It also provides faster certification, ensuring legal standards are met while saving you time and money.

At Avery Weigh-Tronix, safety is paramount, especially when working on pit weighbridges, where confined spaces pose unique risks. We strictly adhere to a two-person rule, ensuring a trained standby technician is always present to manage emergencies, operate rescue equipment, and summon help if needed. Our technicians undergo comprehensive training in confined space safety and emergency response, empowering them to halt work if conditions are deemed unsafe. To further mitigate risks, we advocate for surface-mounted weighbridges, which eliminate confined space hazards altogether. By prioritising safety, compliance, and proactive planning, we protect both our employees and customers during every service interaction.

Why are weighbridge test units important?

When a trade approved weighbridge requires a repair, a weighbridge test unit must reverify the weighbridge for legal-for-trade use. Until reverification takes place, weighbridge accuracy can’t be relied on for trading goods or services, meaning that businesses can end up out of pocket, or unable to transact business at all. With the demand for weighbridge test units so high, it can sometimes take weeks for a test unit to become available from other service providers.

We understand the demand for weighbridge reverification and have grown our fleet to meet this demand. We have full control over scheduling and prioritisation that is not possible when using third party units. The weights we use to calibrate weighbridges have all been calibrated by a UKAS / ISO 17025 accredited laboratory, meaning they are at the highest accuracy level available to ensure your weighbridge operates with pinpoint precision.

Our Uptime Select BridgeCare Total plans include reverification services as standard. But we can also provide reverification services with no contract required, to get your operation up and running as quickly as possible.
