Hi Plumber,
True we say weigh the trailer and in truth it's the best thing to do. You don's necessarily need a CAT scale, you just need a scale. Maybe try googling public scales and see what is in your area. You might find a grain elevator, landfill, or moving company nearby that will weigh it for you.
As far as what to do if you are overweight. Well really nothing at the moment. If you are overloaded when you drive in you are no better or worse than if you had not weighed it in the first place. But you might also be able to move some things around in the trailer so get the weight more even.
Anyway good luck with it,
