Where can I go to weigh my boat?

[Captain PartyMarty]

Hey guy's

I want to find out how much my boat + trailer weighs, to find out if my van can haul the thing. I live in surrey but can't seem to find a vehicle scale open to the pubic. Do any of you know place I can roll up pass the guy's a case beer and use there scale?

When the commercial scales are closed the scale is often still on. Drive over it and stop then subtract the weight of the truck.

Pull into a commercial scale playing dumb and ask for directions??

Ready mix cement plants always have scales-usually make a small donation to their coffee fund works and usually it's not too busy. There must be lots in the Surry area.

Marty....what about even a transfer station? They weigh your vehicles before and after you dump.

take your boat to a local dump with a scale and just ask them thats what we did!!

X2...easiest and most convenient option

Try with the good folks @ Rypac recycling down by Timberland Rd in Bridgeview flats
They have a scale long enough to weigh a tractor & trailer. I'd ask first before rolling up, I know they would accommodate if the aren't too busy...........Sat morning !! & the weight is posted close to the scale
Worked for me

I use the comm. scale at 176st-south of 4 ave comm scale on southbound side is not manned-just use it & you turn around and head back north---just make sure there isn't a hour wait at the border cause it'll be harder to turn around

Hate the Guvvy scales
Look odd lined up with the tractor trailers
