What other scales are there available?
No man, want you in one piece.
I have used bridge scales at the refuse/recycle transfer stations (garbage dump), and at the local sand & gravel company's concrete batch plant.

Also check with your city (don't know where you live as you don't list it in your profile). Usually there is a local enforcement office that might help. Also concrete batch plants usually have scales.

I used our local dump to find out my weight of my old truck and trailer. Call the dump first and check if it's ok. We're able to use the dump once a month with a copy of our sewer bill. I just asked them what I weighted in at...
