They are everywhere

For about $10, it weighs all three axles simultaneoulsy and individually, and gives you a printout. I highly recommend it, especially in your case.

Now that is a great tip, thanks. I've seen those CAT emblems around but never knew exactly what they were. There happens to be one nearby, too.

I was thinking of going to the county landfill scales but it is a one piece unit. The Cat would be very convenient to get all three axles measured at the same time.

Thanks to all of you for your input! With the information from Bill on the TV axle rating and tentcamper's input on WDH, I exchanged the 800 lb Curt WDH for a 600-800 model and have done some prioritizing of what goes with us in the TV. Again, thanks for sharing your knowledge this forum is incredibly helpful!
