Most truck stops that have a cat scale also have a brochure that lists all of the cat scale locations....and the brochure is updated every few months....and its FREE.
Free is a good price...![]()

Dispatchers are IDIOTS!
Steers: 12,000
Drives: 34,000
Tandems: 34,000
Total: 80,000
Some states allow higher on axle weights IF your axles and tires are rated for it but if you get the above or below numbers your legal in all 48 states!
If you do not have a suspension air pressure gauge, you NEED to find a Cat scale or other public scale and weight ANY load over 30,000lbs.
21st hole????? WTF! 24,000lbs on the 5th wheel??
And that "ticket" that star will pay, YOU are still going to get the Points on your CSA record.........
Your a NEW driver, you need to keep that record clean or you'll be working at companies like star forever......Gotta be more carefull!

OK, makes NO sense. 4k over on the tandems, but the tandems were pretty much all the way back? But he adjusted it and took 4k off the tandems? HOW??
johnday Thanks this. -
my guess is since its a 53 and all the way forward is still more then half way back thats what he is saying is (almost all the way back)
But I'm kinda courious too, 4K is ALLOT to move
