    I'm going to enjoy this thread
    I weigh the entire trailer on the truck scale and then they weigh the non ferrous separately on the floor scale. Then when I leave I reweigh the trailer. If the floor scale and truck scale to not come out the same, the manager and I negotiate. Since they are his scales, he usually is very fair.
