Public scales on I-25 in central New Mexico (Belen & Truth or Consequences)
Two CAT Scales verified on Love’s own location pages on the roughly 220-mile stretch of I-25 between Albuquerque and Las Cruces: Love’s #726 Belen (Exit 191) and Love’s #1045 Truth or Consequences (Exit 79). Useful for U-Haul and PPM moves to or from Kirtland AFB, White Sands and Fort Bliss country, RVs and fifth-wheels headed for Elephant Butte, and horse and stock trailers on the Rio Grande corridor.
This page lists 2 places to weigh near Belen & Truth or Consequences, NM: 2 CAT or truck-stop scales. They are in Belen and Truth or Consequences. 2 are listed as likely to print a certified weight ticket, the kind PPM movers and RV owners checking weight ratings usually need. CAT platforms have a 2,000 lb minimum and do not give corner weights.
Filters hide cards, not industrial rows. CAT will not weigh under 2,000 lb — use a dedicated house for cars and empty utility trailers.

We have not found a walk-up public scale house in Belen, Los Lunas, Socorro or Truth or Consequences with an operator page we can cite. We are not inventing one from feed lots, gravel yards, landfill gate scales, or third-party trucker directories. Both stops below are CAT Scales at truck stops, verified on Love’s own location pages.
CAT Scales on I-25 in central New Mexico
We list only stops verified on the operator’s own location page. Both Love’s pages list CAT Scales among their amenities and say the store is open 24 hours (Belen’s truck care runs 6 a.m. to 11 p.m.). Neither publishes a CAT-staffing schedule. Truth or Consequences is the only verified CAT stop in the roughly 110 miles between Belen and Las Cruces, so plan your weigh there if you are heading south. North of Belen, Albuquerque stops are on Albuquerque / I-40 · I-25; south of Truth or Consequences, Las Cruces stops are on Las Cruces / Deming / Lordsburg / I-10. 2,000 lb floor. No corner weights. Weigh the whole rig, then drop the trailer and weigh again if you need a trailer-only number.

What we still need to verify
Any dedicated public scale house in Valencia, Socorro or Sierra County with an operator page that sells walk-up weighmaster certificates. CAT-scale staffing hours at both stops. Los Lunas and Socorro stops are unchecked. Livestock policy everywhere.
