Just did a google weigh station search and nothing pops up.

A few years back I used to weigh my race car at a Truck stop off Gessner/BW8 (can't remember the name of it).

Anybody know where I can weigh my MH, prefer in west Houston?

Leonsrocketcar -

If I'm not mistaken there is a Flying J on I-45 north of Beltway 8...not sure of the exact exit. I'm not even sure if Flying J does weigh-ins.

No doubt, one of the Texas Boomers in the area will have more info to share - keep checking back!

Did you try using Google on "truck scales houston" ?

Also look into Cat Scales - catscale.com - they have a scale locator.

There are several truck stops out US290 between the beltway and Hempstead that have CAT (or equivalent) scales.

The catscale.com site worked out great. The site search for SW Houston has me heading out to 288/BW8 (10 miles from my storage unit).

Cost at the this location (South Freeway Truck Stop) is $8.50 1st weigh, $1 each additional). I want to get each axle and overall weight of my H.

Thanks for the quick replys.

Glad everyone pitched in to help you get that MH weighed!

Since you are in the greater Houston area, the Texas Boomers would love to meet you at any of the campouts or rallies - we'll bring our slobber rags to polish up the MH!!!

Keep checking on this section - there's a campout this weekend at Rayford Crossing (I-45 at the Woodlands) - even if you couldn't come to campout, just come to say hi and meet the folks!!!

Sandy
