How do folk reply to the request for number of axles when entering outfit details. It ask whether your motorhome has one or two axles! I've seen three axel ones but never single axle motorhomes!

    Mine have both been on the system now as a single axle M/H's for five years now, and no one has ever queried it.....

    From which I deduce that nobody actually cares.....!

    I can understand submitting length details but why is the number of axles required?

    Like TinTent my motorhome has been listed as having one axle for the past 6 years. It is very unclear what is meant but I wonder if the want warning of tag axle motorhomes to warn staff they may need to organise a pitch capable of taking the weight?

    Thanks David, weight may be it however it would need the request for three axles to determine that the outfit was a tag!

    a single or twin axle vehicle is obviously only referring to those axles at the rear. And if a vehicle is referred to a twin wheeler it has two wheels at each end of each axle. And would a twin axle not spread its weight better than a single on a given pitch?
