Mills-Thom's Mechanical Repairs is authorised to inspect and issue RMS Pink Slips, synonymous with E-Safety Checks, and Blue Slips designed to ensure vehicles meet the mandated safety standards for operation on NSW roads.

A Pink Slip is essentially a safety inspection report, evidencing that a vehicle has passed all required safety checks for roadworthiness. It's a requisite for vehicles over five years old that are due for registration renewal in NSW. The term Pink Slip originates from the historical colour of the paper it was printed on, although the actual inspection report these days is often delivered electronically, transitioning to what is now referred to as an E-Safety Check.

E-Safety Checks delve into examining crucial components of a vehicle including brakes, tyres, seatbelts, lights, and exhaust systems to name a few, ensuring they conform to the safety criteria laid out by RMS. If a vehicle successfully passes the inspection, the information is electronically submitted to RMS by the inspector. Consequently, vehicle owners can then proceed to renew their vehicle's registration online or in person.

However, if a vehicle fails to meet the required standards, it results in a fail report, compelling owners to repair all listed defects and seek a re-inspection. Vehicle owners are granted a 14-day period to rectify defects and present their vehicle for a reinspection.

Vehicle owners in NSW are obligated to obtain a Pink Slip/E-Safety Check for their vehicles more than five years old annually, to renew their vehicle registration. By partnering with Mills-Thom's Mechanical Repairs for these inspections, vehicle owners can ensure a hassle-free compliance process with RMS requirements, maintaining the safety and legality of their vehicles on NSW roads. 

A report known as the Blue Slip Inspection ensures that an unregistered vehicle meets safety, design, and identity standards. This inspection is necessary for vehicles without NSW license plates or those purchased from out of state. A Blue Slip serves as a Roadworthy and Safety Inspection report and must be obtained prior to registering the vehicle in NSW. Additionally, a Blue Slip may be required for record adjustments, defect clearances, or for vehicles that have been unregistered for more than 90 days.

As an Authorised Unregistered Vehicle Inspection Scheme (AUVIS) Inspection Station in Coffs Harbour, Mills-Thom's Mechanical Repairs are certified to provide (AUVIS) Inspections, or “Blue Slips” as they are commonly known.
