Weigh Bridge

[R31Nismoid]

Anyone know of/have access too - a weight bridge somewhere in Melb?

There used to be one in Tullamarine i used to use years ago at a logistics company outside thier gate but its no longer there so that kinda sucks.

So im looking for another (as are a few mates) so we can weigh our cars and find out the actual numbers

Lemme know!

Cheers

If you google 'weighbridges in melbourne' it brings up a few sites that list where all the public weighbridges are....

[R31Nismoid]

we have scales for our work commodore cup cars so you can find out the weight on all 4 corners. i'd have to ask the mech for permission though seeing as i'm not technically allowed to use the workshop (even though i do )

[Rekin]

heh thats cool, didnt know they were free? They just allow any car to roll on and get a figure?

Wouldnt mind knowing my car's weight

[R31Nismoid]

Yeah the one i was using for years was free...

Hopefully we find one.

Corner weights would be nice, but for what i need (general weight) its a fair bit of effort

[iseekool]

Try a local tip/waste transfer station - Not sure if it is free or not.....

or

you can fool them into saying you have rubbish to dump, you then have drive up onto the scales, peer over into the office and you will see the weight of your car.

I weigh my patrol at BP in Fitzgerald road in laverton. Cant do corners but can do axels!!

I go when its not busy, ask first and they dont charge me......or you can just drive on the weighbridge, go inside and look at the screen behind the cashiers head and it has the weights there!

[assyrian4evaa]

there is one on cooper st about 200m from the hume hwy/ cooper st lights but not sure if they charge or not

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

The tip off reserve rd cheltenham has scales that you drive onto when you pay on your way in... Just drive on up and ask the guys

[R31Nismoid]

is it for free?

sau cruise to weighbridge?

[llama_au]

That sounds like a plan

[AGE]

Ash, there's one in Cheltenham/Moorabbin at the Metal recyclers... i don't think they charge from memory, but if they do it would be in the $5-$10 range.

It's opposite the street that Snowy works down...

Ahhhh found it, Highett metals

I know that there is one at Schweppes in Tullamarine, but it'd probably be near impossible to convince the security guards to let you use it.
