CAT Scale Price Increase

Posted by Wicell@reddit | Truckers | View on Reddit | 14 comments

I just heard that scale tickets are going up to $15.25 for first weigh and $5.25 for re-weigh. Starting 05/01/2026.

Has anyone else heard or seen this?

I don’t fit on them. Last time I remember using one it was $10.

I remember when the CAT scale cost $5.00 and reweigh cost $1.00. Then when they jumped to $8 and $2 all the drivers were complaining.

Reweighs used to be free when I started driving and first weigh was $4

I’m going to have to assume you don’t drive trucks. You just pull on the scale and hit the button. They ask your truck and trailer number then you get off the scale park and go inside for the paperwork. If weights are good you leave if they’re bad you adjust your tandems tires if possible then repeat the process until weights are legal. If you can’t get legal you drive back to whoever loaded you and tell the to fix it.
