Anyone know of a weigh station in Waco or Austin area that does corner weights?

If you're going to Austin, you could swing by Escapees in Livingston, TX.  They do 4 corner weighing.  Info here (Under "Additional Services", see "SmartWeigh"):

I got some close numbers at a CAT scale, but doing the axle, and telling the speaker person, that I was going to do a re-weight.  Then I drove around the lot, and re-entered off center, with only one side of the coach on the scale.  Some places that might put you on a sloped surface, so the number might not be exact, but maybe close.

As I could not hit the speaker button, Dolly got out and went over to press the button, and we got her weight on one of the scale plates @ no charge.

We are SKPs so I know about the scales in Livingston. I guess if I want exact weights I'll have to go about 300 miles out of my way. Just hoping there were some nearer to my route.
