Where can I go to weigh my MH in Western Washington?

I hear a lot about making sure you don't overload your MH. But to start with does anyone who lives in Western Washington state know where I may go to get the weight of my MH? Can we go into the scales on the freeway?

  • Thanks everyone I will be picking up my MH Friday and want to do things correctly and knowing how much I can pack and safely carry in the rig is a concern of mine. Thanks again I will use your suggestions.
  • There are recycling centers with scales, moving company is where I got my weight in Huntington Beach CA when mine was new.

    I have used the highway 199 weight station in Wilderville OR, just west of Grants Pass. It is only accessible to eastbound traffic.

    Good luck!

  • Also your area sand and gravel plants will have a scale available during business hours of course...

    I've done it on SR-20 west of Mount Vernon several times. It's free, and if there are no commercial vehicles lined-up, you can chat with the WSP guys about how to do it right. They want you to know your correct weight(s).
