If Your Freight Re-Weighing Program
Is Dropping Off... Keep It Moving with SkidWeigh
If the SkidWeigh System had been available
in 1984, it's likely that Jack Batten would have
thought twice about writing his murder mystery,
Crang Plays the Ace. The plot of the Toronto-based
thriller revolves around accounting sleight-of-hand
car-tied out by garbage hauling firms. But SkidWeigh
and its 99-percent-accurate on the spot weight readouts
would have cut through the flimflam immediately.

Trucking Companies No Longer Have a
Weight Verification Problem
Many companies that use lift trucks have
tried various weigh scales on the market, only to
be disappointed in their performance. The rough
environment causes the scales to require constant
re-calibration. Up until now, installation of a
scale on a lift truck has not been worth the hassle.
For the past two years, several trucking companies
have been testing the SkidWeigh weight checking
device. One maintenance manager for a transport
company reported, "The SkidWeigh is doing a
great job with little or no maintenance." As
a result, his company has installed 30 units across
the U.S.A. |

Have you ever found yourself guessing the weight
of a pallet when filling out a waybill? A recent
survey was conducted to determine how effective
shippers skills were at estimating. Would you believe,
on average, actual waybills were underestimated
by 39%! At first thought it may not seem like a
big deal; however it can cause two serious problems.
Firstly, when trucking companies ship your pallets
across the country, they use the waybill information
to determine the total weight for the trailer. If
the weight of the pallets are inaccurate, the trailer
may be overloaded. An overloaded trailer on the
highway is a major safety concern and subject to
large fines. |
