Going to AZ.. Do I need to stop at Scales??

[Bestroken]

Im moving my mom from wisconsin to arizona. 96 F350 cclb with a 7500lb trailer (thats empty). When everything is packed to the hilt like the beverly hill billies, WILL I HAVE TO STOP A WEIGH STATIONS??? Im not commercial and dont have a dot #, nore does the enclosed trailer have anything on it.

No the wiegh stations are for commercial traffic.

no staions for you bud, you arent a commercial truck hauling 60,000 lbs or anything. good luck on your trip. where in AZ are you going to? i lived in glendale which is just west of phoenix for 4 years, it has to be the hottest place on earth, i was glad to get the heck out of there.!!!!

Can't wait to have another AZ member. Where ya gonna be?

That's a subjective question. I know some states require ALL vehicles over 10,000 lbs GVW to stop at the scales. It's just a little different everywhere you go.

Tuson... I have three brothers that live there.

Tuscon. Im dropping my mom off there and powerstroken my way back to wisconsin!

im in tucson and no you wont need to go through a weigh station.

So, It sounds like Im not REQUIRED to stop at any scales.... coursoity is getting the best of me though, can I stop at a scale to find out how much this rig is pulling now that my back is sore from loading the trailer, or would i be subjecting myself to getting in trouble???

You should be able to stop but make sure all your lights work tires are good and brakes are in good shape for sure also no cracked windshields. If that all checks out you will be fine
