Roadworthy Inspections at Our Slacks Creek Workshop
Need a roadworthy certificate (RWC) to sell your car, register it, or transfer ownership? At Toros Roadworthy, we provide Queensland Department of Transport–approved roadworthy inspections from our fully equipped Slacks Creek workshop.
Our workshop inspections are fast, thorough, and fully compliant, giving you the documentation you need to stay on the right side of the law — and peace of mind that your vehicle is safe to drive.
What Is a Roadworthy Certificate?
Ensuring Safety & Compliance in Queensland
A roadworthy certificate is an official document confirming that your vehicle meets the minimum safety standards set by the Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads.
You’ll need an RWC when:
- Selling your vehicle
- Transferring registration
- Re-registering an unregistered vehicle
- Moving a vehicle to Queensland from interstate
Without this certificate, your vehicle cannot be legally driven or sold in most circumstances.
Why Choose a Workshop Inspection?
More Thorough, Faster, and Fully Equipped
While mobile inspections are convenient, our workshop inspections offer advantages:
Access to specialised tools and hoists for a more detailed check
Immediate repairs possible on-site if minor issues are found
Faster turnaround, especially for larger vehicles or complex cases
Controlled environment for consistent inspection conditions
If you want your inspection done right the first time, our workshop is your best option.
