Welcome to CT.
I would advise using it immediately after picking it up, if you can manage. Before you forget everything you were told at the handover.
Also only load it with the absolute minimum. Then take it to the weigh bridge with full fuel tank, gas, traveling fresh water (we normally travel with 25 litres) and full hot water tank. Plus of course those who will travel in it. This will give you the weight you have left to utilise up to the maximum loading.You can then weigh items before you put them in. Once we had finished we returned to the weighbridge to check it again.
It is surprising how quickly your weight allowance gets gobbled up. My advice is don't load anything just because you think you might need it. Other than the spare wheel of course.

SteveL. Cheers for the first time advice. We are planning to load up Wednesday and disappear for a couple of days 🤞. Our payload is 800kg so hopefully will be ample but of course the wife will be packing lol
