Weighing Equipment Hire
Buying weighing equipment isn’t always the most practical or cost-effective option, particularly when it is only required for a short-term project, seasonal demand, stocktaking or to cover equipment downtime.
WOMAG Systems offers a wide range of professional weighing equipment for hire on a weekly or monthly basis, giving you the flexibility to access the equipment you need, for as long as you need it, without the cost of purchasing it outright.
Our hire fleet covers a variety of industrial and commercial weighing applications, from individual scales and stocktaking equipment through to complete vehicle weighing systems. Whether you need a single scale or multiple units across several locations, our team can recommend the most suitable equipment and arrange delivery to suit your requirements.
Vehicle Weigh Pad Hire
Vehicle weigh pads are one of the most popular products in the WOMAG Systems hire fleet, providing a portable and cost-effective way to check vehicle, axle and individual wheel weights without the need for a permanent weighbridge.
Our portable vehicle weighing systems are suitable for a wide range of applications, including:
- Checking vehicle and axle weights
- Identifying potential overloading
- Confirming load distribution
- Fleet and commercial vehicle weight checks
- Motorsport and vehicle setup
- Agricultural and specialist vehicles
- Temporary weighing operations
- Short-term projects where a permanent weighbridge is not practical
Systems can be supplied with multiple weigh pads and a digital weight indicator, allowing individual wheel weights, axle weights and total vehicle weight to be recorded.
Our team can help configure the system around the type and weight of vehicles you need to weigh, ensuring you receive the right equipment for the application.
Stocktake Scale Hire
For businesses carrying out annual or periodic stocktakes, hiring weighing equipment provides a simple and cost-effective way to increase weighing capacity without investing in equipment that may only be used once or twice a year.
WOMAG Systems can provide multiple scales for larger stocktakes, helping teams work efficiently while maintaining accurate and consistent weighing results.
Calibrated, Reliable and Ready to Use
All WOMAG Systems hire equipment is inspected and calibrated before dispatch, ensuring it arrives ready for use. Calibration certificates are available on request, providing additional confidence where weighing accuracy and traceability are important.
Clear operating instructions are supplied with our hire equipment, and onsite setup and operator training can also be provided where required.
When you hire from WOMAG Systems, you also have access to our experienced weighing engineers and technical team throughout the hire period, giving you the support you need if you have any questions or require technical assistance.

FAQ's
Weighing Equipment Hire FAQs
What weighing equipment can I hire from WOMAG Systems?
WOMAG Systems offers a range of industrial weighing equipment for short and longer-term hire, including vehicle weigh pads, crane scales, piece counting scales, platform scales and large floor and pallet scales. Equipment can be hired for anything from a one-off project or stocktake to temporary production requirements or cover while existing equipment is being repaired.
Can I hire vehicle weigh pads?
Yes. Vehicle weigh pad hire is one of our most popular hire services. Our portable vehicle weighing systems provide a convenient alternative to a permanent weighbridge when you only need to weigh vehicles for a limited period.
Systems can be configured to measure individual wheel weights, axle weights and total vehicle weight, depending on your requirements. They are suitable for commercial vehicles, vans, specialist vehicles, agricultural machinery, motorsport and many other applications.
Can vehicle weigh pads help me check if a vehicle is overloaded?
Yes. Vehicle weigh pads can be used to check individual wheel, axle and total vehicle weights, helping you identify overloading and uneven load distribution before a vehicle goes onto the road.
Our team can recommend the correct number and capacity of weigh pads based on the vehicles you need to weigh.
Do you hire crane scales?
Yes. WOMAG Systems offers crane scales for hire for applications where loads need to be weighed while suspended from lifting equipment.
Crane scale hire can be particularly useful for one-off lifting projects, shutdowns, installation work, stock checks and situations where purchasing a crane scale for occasional use would not be cost-effective.
Do you offer scales for stocktaking?
Yes. We can supply piece counting scales for stocktakes and inventory checks, including multiple units where a larger number of scales are required.
Rather than manually counting hundreds or thousands of identical components, a piece counting scale calculates the quantity from the total weight of the items and a known individual piece weight. This can significantly speed up stocktaking for businesses holding components, fixings, manufactured parts and other repeat items.
Can I hire multiple piece counting scales for a stocktake?
Yes. We can provide multiple counting scales for larger stocktakes, allowing several employees or departments to count stock at the same time.
If you let us know what you are counting, the approximate individual piece weights and the quantities involved, we can recommend the most appropriate scales for the job.
Can I hire a large floor scale for counting heavy parts?
Yes. For larger components or high-volume stock counts, WOMAG Systems can provide large floor scales and pallet scales suitable for parts counting.
These allow boxes, stillages, containers or pallets of components to be weighed and the total quantity calculated, making them particularly useful for industrial and manufacturing stocktakes where a standard bench counting scale is too small.
Can I hire a floor or pallet scale just for weighing?
Yes. If you don't require piece counting, we can provide a simple weight-only floor or pallet scale.
These are ideal for weighing pallets, containers, stillages, goods and other large items in warehouses, factories and production environments. We can recommend the appropriate platform size and weighing capacity for your application.
How long can I hire weighing equipment for?
Our weighing equipment is available on a weekly or monthly hire basis, with longer hire periods also available. This gives you the flexibility to hire equipment for the period that best suits your operation.
Is hire equipment calibrated before I receive it?
Yes. WOMAG Systems inspects and calibrates hire equipment before dispatch so that it arrives ready for use. Calibration certificates are also available on request where documented calibration or traceability is required.
If you have a specific calibration or compliance requirement, please let us know when requesting your hire equipment.
Can you deliver and set up the equipment?
Yes. Depending on the equipment and application, we can arrange delivery and provide onsite installation, setup and operator training if required.
For more straightforward equipment, we provide clear operating instructions so your team can get up and running quickly.
What happens if I have a problem with the equipment during the hire?
You will have access to the WOMAG Systems technical and engineering team throughout your hire period. If you have a question or experience a problem, our team will help diagnose the issue and provide the appropriate support to keep your operation running.
How do I know which hire scale I need?
You don't need to know the exact model. Simply tell us what you need to weigh, the maximum weight, the size of the items and what you need the scale to do.
For vehicle weighing, it is also helpful to know the type of vehicles and their approximate maximum weight. For parts counting, the approximate weight of the smallest individual component helps us select a scale with sufficient accuracy.
Contact WOMAG Systems with your requirements and our team will recommend the most suitable hire equipment for your application.
