No verified dedicated public scale house in Far West Texas yet

We have not found a walk-up public scale house in Van Horn, Fort Stockton or Pecos with an operator page we can cite. We are not inventing one from oilfield yards, cotton gins, feedlots, aggregate plants, or third-party trucker directories. All six stops below are CAT Scales at truck stops, verified on Love’s and Pilot Flying J’s own location pages.

CAT Scales in Van Horn, Fort Stockton and Pecos

We list only stops verified on the operator’s own location page. Every page here lists a CAT Scale and says the store is open 24 hours; none publishes a CAT-staffing schedule. Distances are long out here: Van Horn is about 120 miles east of El Paso, Fort Stockton about 120 miles past that on I-10, and Pecos sits on I-20 about 55 miles north of Fort Stockton by US-285. Love’s #256 in Van Horn (Exit 140B) lists no CAT Scale, so Pilot #209 is the only verified scale there. West on I-10, see El Paso / Anthony / Santa Teresa. 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, roadside inspection pull-offs, and Border Patrol checkpoints on I-10 and US-90 are 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 Culberson, Pecos or Reeves County with an operator page that sells walk-up weighmaster certificates. CAT-scale staffing hours at all six stops. Sierra Blanca, Fort Hancock, Balmorhea, Monahans, Pyote, Orla and Kermit are unchecked. Livestock policy everywhere.
