Weighbridges available for public use
A number of weighbridges are available for public use in Essex.
You should contact the weighbridge operator before going to check:
- how much it costs to use
- how to get there
- their operating hours
You should also tell the operator if you have a very large vehicle, to make sure it will fit on the weighbridge.
