Weigh each wheel and the tongue on your scale, then total the weights.
Weigh each wheel and the tongue and you'll have it.

Subject: [bolger] Weighing trailer


This subject has been discussed before, but I can't find the old thread to review.

My boat tow car is shot. I have another very tiny one I use every day, but would like to
know just how much strain it'll be enduring if I put a hitch on it and haul away. Closer
to 350 rather than 600 pounds all up may make a difference.

Weighing each wheel on a bathroom scale, then doubling does not seem right -or is it?
Any better ideas. please?

Thanks,
Mark
