Charges for heavy vehicles are calculated using the vehicle's type, Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM), the number of axles and the vehicle's nominated configuration. The nominated configuration for a truck or prime mover refers to the combination of the hauling unit and trailers. You must nominate the highest configuration at which you intend to operate the vehicle.
You can find descriptions of the vehicle configuration in the Description of Heavy Vehicles form, available from the Documents box at the bottom of this page.

* Registration fees, inspection fees and stamp duty may also be payable. Fees may also be paid quarterly. For further information on registration fees for particular heavy vehicles, contact RTA Heavy Vehicle Customer Service by phone on 1300 364 847, or by email.
