Safety Certificate & Roadworthy (RWC) Inspections — Petrie Terrace
A traditional inspection station would have you booking days ahead, driving across Brisbane, and waiting at a workshop. In Petrie Terrace, our mobile service turns that into a simple online booking, a confirmed time slot, and an inspector who shows up at your door. The inspection typically takes 45–60 minutes, and your certificate is emailed the moment it's complete — all without you going anywhere.
The most common inspections we carry out in Petrie Terrace are for everyday passenger vehicles — sedans, hatchbacks, wagons, and small SUVs. These are typically pre-sale inspections, re-registration certificates, or transfer-of-ownership situations. Our inspectors check all TMR-mandated items including brakes, tyres, lights, suspension, seatbelts, windscreen, body integrity, and more.

We Come to You — Here's Why That Matters
There's a practical reason mobile inspections work well in Petrie Terrace specifically: traffic. Getting a vehicle across Brisbane to a workshop and back during business hours can easily take half a day. Our mobile service cuts that to an hour at most — the time the inspection takes, at your door, at a time you've already chosen.
📋 When a Safety Certificate Is Legally Required
In Queensland, a safety certificate (also called a roadworthy or RWC) is required when: selling a privately registered vehicle, re-registering after a lapsed registration, or transferring ownership to a new registered owner. It is valid for 2 months or 2,000km from the date of issue. We cover Petrie Terrace 4000 and all Brisbane City Council suburbs.
