4 corner weighting near hill country Tx

Looking to get 4 corner weighting, I vaguely remember a post in the December timeframe about someone who had portable scales near San Antonio Tx that could weigh class a I think they normally do rally in the area

Contact info would be great

While not exactly near the hill country, they offer corner weighing at the Escapees headquarters location in Lufkin TX which is 75-100 miles north of Houston.

Actually, it's Livingston Texas (close enough to Lufkin) and the Escapee's RV Club home base, SmartWeigh is regularly available. Refer to the link below;

Yep, it happens. Early riser here too and many times for me influenced by too much coffee but I'm addicted and can't change.

As we get older strange things happen to our bodies. I often get up early and find that my mind stays in bed sound asleep yet. No problem, though, as my wife will correct any mistakes I make till my mind catches up. Then again other days my mind gets to racing in the morning, but the body wants to stay where it's warm and comfy. In either case, usually by mid morning, both have caught up and the rest of the day is flawless, at least in my mind.

I found the info that I referenced from December post. It was rvsafety team in the area that does corner weighting. Unfortunately they moved on in February.

I’m not excited about driving around Houston and need to evaluate my options.

There has been a few posts about grain cooperative having scales or waste mgmt or gravel pits.

My concern is not knowing the proper methodology and getting some numbers and misapplying the results.

Or waiting until I can catch up with the team.

A few years ago we stayed at Buckhorn RV Resort in Kerrville, TX. During our stay there was a mobile service rig doing an oil change/service on the coach next to us. He had a set of portable scales also.
A call to Buckhorn should provide a contact number for him.
