Our Promises
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 QLD Transport’s Safety Certificate guidelines. It’s not uncommon for a car to fail its first inspection. You have 14 days to get any 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 have the Compulsory Third Party (CTP) component of your rego paid. This is so we can carry out a sufficient road test as it is part of the inspection.
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 needs to be brought to our Workshop. We can arrange pick up of unregistered vehicles at an additional cost.
