scales near Boston MA

and where are you heading might help

 

Hit a landfill. That's what I always did...

"All Town Truck Stop
I-190 & Exit 7 Leominster, MA"

 

There is a new CAT scale in Bow, NH at the Mr. Mikes/Pilot fuel stop. It appears to have a lot of room to park and get your ticket. Located next door to the Peterbilt dealer on route 3a. The only other one I know of close to the Boston area would be the T/A in Greenland, NH; which is currently lousy with construction.

 

MA does not believe in truck stops. If you look around you'll even seen weird looking things hanging from the gas stations. Something about that state will not allow trucks stops.

 

"We don want any trucks in ar` cit-i."
"Well, enjoy not eating. Or being clothed. Or being warm."

 

Pilot Sturbridge Ma. Exit 1 off I 84. Cat. Scale Good Luck.

 

Or if you're heading to New Yawk state, the Ambest T/S in Chicopea MA off of I90... plenty of parking and a good diner.

 

There is the Plainville truckstop a couple miles off the interstate on US 1 that has scales. It's down near the southern end where I-495 and I-95 meet.

116 Washington Street
Plainville, MA 02762

Exit 14B off of I-495. It's the N. Attleboro exit. It's a cloverleaf/2nd ramp US 1 south. Then a couple miles on your right. They have Citgo signs out.

There's another truck stop but I can't remember the name of it. It's been years ago. I usually used my pressure gauge or hit Sturbidge.

How much on the bills?

If you time it right you can get all the way to NJ/PA line or NY without hitting any open scales.
