scales

[maxwell]

where do you guys weigh your rigs? im in sherwood park i notice one at flying J but looks like you might have to have a membership or something didnt really check it out. i also know of one on highway 16 after edson but it also says for commercial use only. i dont mind paying but is there any others close to edmonton/sherwood park.

Most scales u can just drive up on, open or closed no charge. Should be able to hit the one on hwy 16 east, those self weighs are open 24/7 for anyone

 

[Murminator]

Across the street at Road King if I remember $7 and re-weighs are free in case you want to drop the trailer and weight the truck so you know what the trailer weighs by itself they wont let you drop the trailer on the scale

Seems stupid that u have to pay. The one at Balzac is free they didn't care when I went in there.

 

[Trashy]

Isn't there scales out by Ardrossan?

Nisku Truck Stop not sure if they charge.

The government scales are free. Truckstop scales are privately operated so that's why they charge for them and prices very. There are two government scales on Hwy 16. One is east of Sherwood Park (Ardrossan) and the west bound is at the Acheson overpass (Hwy 16 and 60). The east bound is a maned scale and the west bound is a selfweigh. Both are 24hr scales. If you weigh at the east bound scale and the DOT officer is working he will print you a weigh ticket if you ask

If your out and about a local grain elevator will have a scale. I've done that before

So I need to ask this question

Where are the UNMANED/DOT weight scales around EAST Edmonton

Goggled for an hour and read so much crap that I came back to S & M to ask for help

I may be overweight and do not want a ticket to find out how bad I may be overweight - you know just to be safe

There are no "unmanned" ones ,just go to Ardrossan when they're closed.Scale will still be on and digital read out is outside where you can see it.

Or go pay 7 or ten bucks at a truckstop on Broadmoor.

one east of westlock before hwy 2.... unmanned. DOT parks there every now and then but that's about it.

HWY 16 and HWY 60 on the north side of the yellowhead. Head towards big lake, there is a pull around there, tons of room and really close to the highway.

Few years back I wanted to weigh my new toy hauler loaded to the nuts and truck as we were off to alaska.. I pulled into the scale North of Edmonton going to gran prairie some place.. Looked around and no one there

2500 duramax and 43' foot voltage came in just under 30000lbs... My drives were over by a few thousand lbs... As I drive away I see the dot dude walking into scale.. Never had a issue since and pulled it last few year from alaska to mexico

Just get into an accident with a 2500 and 43ft trailer at 30000 and see how much insurance you will have. ZIP
