    Great advice to the newbies. I write the tare weight in sharpie on all of my containers. It shows you have some idea of what you are doing.

    Once in a while they won't tare some containers. They just punch in a standard weight such as 2 lb for a 5 gallon bucket and one place I went to just punched in 1 lb for a cardboard box. Even though they may weigh more.
