Motorhome weight spreadsheet

Motorhome weight spreadsheet - Allows weight calculations for motorhome, by inputting weights and position of items

I found this on line somwhere, so cannot claim any credit, but have found it useful to plan loading, as you can do a virtual load to see how the axle weights are affected by where items are located realtive to the rear axle. Just easy to have a play about with where you store things.
The instructions are fairly straightforward, you have a table where you can include items that are part of the travelling kit when the van is weighed and two others where you can add or remove items, in front...

Yes it is!

It's mine - already in "Resources "

Motorhome Weight Calculator

The aim of this Spreadsheet was to allow me to add or remove items from my MH, once I had been to a Weighbridge, but to still know the actual axle-weights. Although I am confident that I have sufficient Payload, I wanted to know accurate Axle...

Sorry, I deleted it because I realised I'd found it on here originally, posted by Revolvor, so is already available

I think spreadsheets are very useful to calculate additions like a rack and scooter. But a little cumbersome for frequent use where a local weighbridge if available will give a much better idea. We've just up plated my plan is to load with everything including the bike rack and e bikes but no water and go to the weighbridge if its well in I can have peace of mind if taking less

How Much Weight Can I Put in My Motorhome Garage Without Overloading My Rear Axle?

Your motorhome has 400kg payload but only 150kg usable in the garage. Calculate your limits, and avoid illegal overloading.

Jim's and my calculators start from different places.

Jim's assumes an empty van which you add items to, using MAM & MIRO.

With mine, you weigh your van and then add or subtract items to see the new weight. I'm sure we have all changed the contents of a van after going to a weighbridge. Importantly it also records the location of the item, so you can see the change on actual axle loads as well.

I originally produced it to establish axle loads to determine the correct tyre pressures.
