We find it slightly easier to do the weighing in reverse. First, after you leave home on a real trip, pull onto the scales and weigh to get the combined weights. Then pull off the scales and find a place to park the trailer and unhitch. Drive around and reweigh, then hitch up again and continue on your trip.
We have only used CAT scales and never had a problem with this.
Good luck!John & Cheryl

We pick up our new 337RLS tomorrow and will be weighing it on the way home. I will weigh it again after I load it and then will have the whole story so to speak.

I am fortunate my closest scale takes RV's no problem. If I need to drop the trailer and a truck comes I just wait until they get weighed and then complete my weighing. It always takes two weighs to get all the data I need The truckers are always appreciative of my consideration.
