State weigh stations.

We are leaving Sunday for a month long trip to Yellowstone and the Tetons.
The Mh will probably never be more loaded than it is now.. Would like to get weighed at a state line weight station. I know not to stop if they are busy. Will they weigh the MH?
Any etiquette I should know?
Thanks.

We normally weigh at a commercial location. The state weigh stations just seem so convenient , I did not know they were free.
Thanks.

Got to ask, why so heavily loaded? There are plenty of stores and places to buy necessities without packing every nook and cranny. We took a six week trip to the northeast last fall, planning for about 7 days before needing to stop for supplies. Just a thought.
Have a safe trip.

I would just pay at a truck stop and get weighed and print out to keep in your coach. Worth the small fee and you can pick up a Y'oohoo chocolate drink at the same time!!!

They typically close the weight station after about midnight, and open it around 6 am. If the station says closed, but does not say "DO NOT ENTER" you can stop and see what the weight is.

In Oregon, there are many weigh stations that are turned on all the time, and if there is not a truck there, I can check the weight of whatever it is that I am driving.

Good luck,

Fred.

I would try to find one that is closed. Usually you can see the readout through the window.
