Default Weighing our Newell

I want to get my Newell weighed (total and all 4 corners plus my toad)...... I can't seem to find any public scales that are equipped to do this. They can weigh the unit but not the corners (tires). How and where do you weigh your Newell ?

I have mine weighed at the Newell factory when I am in for service. Usually about once every 2 years. They have portable electronic scales that weigh each wheel on each axle for a total of 6 scales. The printout also gives you the total weight. So you know how much weight is on each wheel and the total. I think its FREE!

You can go to truck stops but they weigh the whole coach and they charge you for this service.

Your best bet if you are near Newell would be to have them do it for you, like Tuga stated.

As you stated Truck stops and weight stations only do the hole thing., but if you call the DOT for the area around you could find out where they are doing what is called spot inspections and they weight all four.
