As a local provider of Roadworthys / Safety Certificates, it’s our duty of care to make sure your inspection is carried out correctly.

Once the inspection is complete and all areas pass the test, we sign off the car to indicate it is safe to be on the road and meets Queensland Transport’s Safety Certificate guidelines. It’s not uncommon for a car to fail its first inspection. You have 14 days to get any repairs/servicing issues sorted out without having to pay for another inspection – as long as it is returned to our workshop for the follow-up inspection.

Also, the vehicle either needs to be registered or the Compulsory Third Party (CTP) component of your car registration (rego) must be paid. This is so we can carry out a sufficient road test as it is part of the inspection. Unregistered vehicles can also be inspected.

Some other terminology used to describe a Roadworthy include Blue Slip, Warrant, MOT, Roady, RWC. The official term is Safety Certificate.

Please note: for all Roadworthy Inspections, your vehicle must be brought to our Workshop. We can arrange pick up of unregistered vehicles at an additional cost.

We strive for customer satisfaction in all touchpoints with our business.

FAQ

How long does a Roadworthy Certificate last?

For private sellers, a roadworthy certificate is valid for 2 months or 2000km, whichever comes first. For car dealers, a roadworthy certificate lasts for 3 months or 1000km, whichever comes first. 

Is a Roadworthy Certificate the same as a Certificate of Inspection?

No. The Certificate of Inspection is required for instances such as passenger transport (Uber, Didi, Ola, Taxi's). They are a different accreditation and not every Roadworthy Station has the authority to carry these out. 

Do you offer Mobile Roadworthys?

We do not offer Mobile Roadworthy services at this point in time. If you have an unregistered vehicle, we can arrange pick-up at an additional cost. 

How much does a Standard Roadworthy Certificate cost?

The current cost for a standard roadworthy certificate is $85 (price current April 2020).

Be wary of workshops offering cut-price deals with inspections as they need to recoup lost income somewhere else. We stick to the rules and carry out most repairs at our workshop.

How long does a Roadworthy check take?

It usually takes 45-60 minutes to complete a Roadworthy check. 

If my roadworthy fails, how long do I have to get it fixed?

14 days, without having to pay for another roadworthy certificate RWC

Can you provide Gas Certificates HVRAS?

Not at this point in time.
