There are truck stops that have scales for public use. Usually it will cost about $8 or so for the first weight on the empty truck. Then they allow you a return weigh with a trailer in less than 24 hours. Ask about that. That will give you all the weights you need to figure the numbers you need.

Thank You Frank! Now is there something visible from the road that will indicate to me it is a public scale before I get into the exit line? I suppose that probably varies from state to state...I'll keep my eyes open for a scale with a short waiting line.
Just a passing thought: I wonder if one could trust the scale at a county refuse collection center...you know where they weight your truck on the way in and on the way out and charge your disposal fee based on the weight you shed in between.
