Somewhere to get weighed in or near St Petersubrg

Does anyone know of a place that I can get my truck & camper get weighed in or near St Petersburg, FL?

The closest place that I'm aware is the TA truckstop over off of I4 on the other side of Seffner. I hate to drive all that way.

I'm hoping someone on here knows someplace closer. Someplace free would be nice too!

    The closed DOT scales is a state-by-state thing. In MD and VA- they're gated closed when they're closed.

    However, the truck stop is a good point. To the OP- the CAT Scale site has a locator (clicky).
  • Check with the moving companies there in St Pete. I know several of the big national companies used to have their own scales and would weigh private individuals. worth looking into.
  • There really is nothing on I-275 as it is a "bypass" through Tampa and there are not any big truck stops right off the interstate. As you said, get to I4 and 75 (lazy days exit) or 75 and state road 52.
  • Thank you The Texan for the suggestion to call moving companies. Blocker (Allied) moving has a scale right on 22nd Ave in St Pete, just a few minutes from home that I can get weighed at for only $10!
