When it comes to managing payloads, safety, and compliance in the skip bin and waste collection industry, accurate weight measurement is essential. The Loadsense Wireless Onboard Scale—also known as an On Vehicle Scale—is a game-changing innovation designed specifically for our scale for gantry skip trucks. Unlike outdated wired systems with limited functionality, the Loadsense solution offers a fully wireless, sensor-integrated weighing system, delivering accurate weight readings from the gantry arms through an advanced load cell strain gauge installation.

Purpose-Built for Gantry Skip Waste Trucks

The Loadsense Wireless Onboard Scale is engineered to seamlessly integrate with skip truck gantry arms, offering unmatched precision thanks to a unique load cell sensor setup. Unlike conventional methods that rely on axle-based approximations or underbody mounting, this system installs directly on the mechanical lifting arms, providing real-time load readings during skip lifting and lowering operations.

This direct measurement method offers an unparalleled level of accuracy—eliminating guesswork, estimation, or manual checks. It allows operators to know the exact weight of each skip bin, whether full or partially loaded, enhancing operational control and ensuring every trip remains within legal payload limits.

Wireless Weighing Redefined: Why Go Cable-Free?

Loadsense’s wireless technology sets a new industry standard for onboard truck scales:

  • Fully Wireless Sensors: Using RF (Radio Frequency)—not Bluetooth—for sensor-to-integrator communication, Loadsense avoids common interference and reliability issues often associated with basic Bluetooth systems.

  • Bluetooth Connectivity (Latest Version): While the internal communication uses RF for robustness, the integrator connects via Bluetooth to any Android or Apple iOS mobile device, giving drivers and operators instant access to weight data through the Loadsense app.

  • No Wiring. No Downtime. No Compromise: Traditional wired scales are prone to damage, wear, corrosion, and signal interruptions. They also require ongoing maintenance. The Loadsense wireless sensors eliminate this risk, reducing maintenance costs and increasing uptime for busy waste collection fleets.

Outperforming Old-School Competitors

Many competitor systems still rely on “dumb” wired displays and rigid cab-mounted terminals, offering minimal interactivity, poor data portability, and cumbersome calibration processes. The Loadsense Wireless Onboard Scale leaves these in the dust by:

  • Offering real-time data on mobile devices

  • Enabling instant export of weight data

  • Providing remote support and calibration capabilities

  • Ensuring fast, retrofit-friendly installation

Operators no longer need to return to the yard or cab to read a clunky display—they simply check their mobile device.

Tailored for All Suspension Types

Whether your gantry skip truck features mechanical spring suspension, air suspension, or a combination of both, Loadsense’s system is flexible and adaptable. The wireless weighing sensors are engineered to work with any suspension configuration, offering scalable options for fleet-wide deployment across diverse vehicle types.

Compliance Made Easy

Overloading is not just a risk to the vehicle—it’s a liability for your business. Loadsense’s onboard truck scale system helps operators stay compliant with road weight regulations in regions like New Zealand, Australia, the UK, Europe, Canada, and the USA. Real-time weighing data ensures:

  • Every load remains within legal axle group limits

  • Fleets avoid fines and downtime

  • Businesses maintain a reputation for safety and reliability
