Request rental of weights

There are weight sets with weights of 1 kg, 2 kg, 5 kg and 10 kg as well as individual weights of 20 kg, 50 kg, 200 kg and 500 kg.

Prerequisite
You agree to the terms and conditions of the Eich- und Beschusswesen Baden-Württemberg. You can obtain these from the verification offices before submitting your application.
Procedure
Apply for the rental of weights informally, usually by telephone to the responsible office.
As soon as the complete application has been received, a possible collection and return date will be agreed with you.
Notice: In certain circumstances it may be more efficient to hand over hired weights directly to the next user. This can save you time and travel distance because you do not have to return the weights to the Weights and Measures Office. The Weights and Measures Office will assist in organising the rental.

Prior agreement with the Weights and Measures Office is required for the rental of weights.
This ensures that you have sufficient weights available at the appropriate time.
