Safety Certificate & Roadworthy (RWC) Inspections — Wacol
Wacol is part of our core Brisbane City Council service area. Our inspectors are familiar with the Far South corridor and operate throughout South Brisbane daily. Whether your vehicle is in a driveway on a quiet street or a car park near Gailes Golf Club nearby, we'll come to you, carry out the complete TMR safety inspection, and issue your certificate digitally on completion.

Larger vehicles have additional inspection points — including load capacity compliance, tow bar condition (where fitted), and underbody integrity.

Skip the Workshop. We'll Come to Wacol.
A workshop model was built around the assumption that customers would always drive to the inspector. Our model flips that: the inspector drives to the customer. In Wacol, that means you can book an inspection for a vehicle that hasn't moved in months, have it inspected in your driveway, receive your certificate by email, and organise re-registration — all without the vehicle leaving your property.
📋 When You'll Need a Safety Certificate
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 Wacol 4076 and all Brisbane City Council suburbs.
