[QUOTE="PSQ, post: 7541102, member: 11374"] We have a 50t commercial weigh bridge on farm, which is tested annually by the council, FoC. We're not a 'public weigh bridge', but the council 'weights and measures' man suggests we should be, as there are occasional near neighbours who use the bridge. The upside is a bit of income, the downside is having to be around during 'published hours', having to become a certified 'weigh master' and having all sorts of people lurking around a working yard at no notice. To those with on farm weigh bridges, are you 'public'? If not, do you weigh (and charge) trusted businesses? What is a fair rate per weighing (and tare) for letting someone use £40+k's worth of kit? I'm just trying to 'weigh up' if the hassle will be worth it. [/QUOTE]
