Any dump that weighs you on the way in. They'll prbably just do it for free on a slow day, just tell them you want to know how much your car weighs.

When you go to the dump they weigh your car going in, then you dump the crap you brought to dump and then weigh the car on your way out that way they charge by how much crap you left.

It has been awhile mate, but we don't have alignment rack here (perhaps the new building will though) we do have scales that will do what Whit needs though.

i remember at sac raceway they got scales. if you do them up, they got some out there. you just need to add your weight to the car's. you cant actually see the weight cause its on the opposite side of the scale.

If you get of 101 at De La Cruz and go south, I think its like the second street on the right, drive down that and it turns into some shipping yards. At the end of the street, you will see some train tracks. Right next to the train tracks is a driveway. Drive up that, look across the street and bingo. Theres you and your car's weight. Yes, I have done this, its not fake.

Oh, and this is in N. San Jose/Santa Clara for those not from the South bay area.

Edit: The street is Robert and its shaped like a U. On my beautiful MS paint/ Google earth picture here, the scale is the red X, the weight display is the blue X.
