Dot scales are at Balzac on hwy 2, just west of the petrocan at hwy 1 and 22, in behind the petrocan at Aldersyde south on hwy 2 or half way to Strathmore on hwy 1.

Weigh each axle individually, drop the trailer and re-weigh your tow vehicle. That will give your gross trailer weight as well as tongue weight. Check your owner's manual and you can also figure out how much cargo weight your tow vehicle has on board. Remember, cargo weight includes passengers and fuel.
