Main truck entrance is right after the speed limit sign (35 miles) please see pictures. Once you see the building on the right with the numbers(5019) slow down. You will make a sharp right. You usually will see cars parked around the main truck entrance. It is tight to park in one of their docks, but It isn't impossible, You Can Doing it. Maybe another driver could help you to check your blind spots or get out and look. Once inside follow the signs to go to the scale. Then the lady inside the building will tell you what to do. People are friendly. They will unload you quickly if they aren't busy.
