This is the current info on drivebc.com. But you should always check this site out before leaving Vancouver for updated info seeing as how you are going in late May. Lots can change in 2 months.

This is all I could find for weights on BC gov website. But I'm not sure if this is accurate or correct for hwy 99 but it might give you a general idea so I'm assuming 50% of these below (1kg=2.2lbs)
Weight
a) Single axle ....................................9,100 kg
b) Tandem axles
less than 1.2 m................................... 16,500 kg
1.2 m to 1.85 m ..................................17,000 kg
