Filters hide cards, not industrial rows. CAT will not weigh under 2,000 lb — use a dedicated house for cars and empty utility trailers.

No verified dedicated public scale house between Sweetwater and Ranger yet

We have not found a walk-up public scale house in Sweetwater, Abilene, Tye, Baird, Cisco or Ranger with an operator page we can cite. We are not inventing one from cotton gins, aggregate plants, scrap yards, landfill gate scales, or third-party trucker directories. All six stops below are CAT Scales at truck stops, verified on Love’s, Pilot Flying J’s and TA Petro’s own location pages.

CAT Scales in Sweetwater, Abilene, Cisco and Ranger

We list only stops verified on the operator’s own location page. All three Love’s pages and both Flying J pages list a CAT Scale and say the store is open 24 hours; TA Sweetwater lists a CAT Scale and 24/7 fuel but no 24-hour store statement. None publishes a CAT-staffing schedule. Flying J #738 sits at Exit 277 in Tye (Pilot files the store under Abilene). West on I-20 toward Midland–Odessa, see Monahans / Odessa / Midland / Big Spring. 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.

Do not go here for a ticket

Texas DPS commercial vehicle enforcement sites and roadside inspection pull-offs on I-20 are for commercial vehicles — not a place to buy a civilian weighmaster ticket for a U-Haul, RV, boat, horse trailer, or PPM load. Follow posted signs; do not treat this directory as a bypass guide.

What we still need to verify

Any dedicated public scale house in Nolan, Taylor, Callahan or Eastland County with an operator page that sells walk-up weighmaster certificates. CAT-scale staffing hours at all six stops, and TA Sweetwater’s store hours. Snyder, Merkel, Clyde, Eastland and Weatherford are unchecked. Livestock policy everywhere.
