Load Checkweighing and Adjustment Time

The savings to your current loading operations, should they involve any work time for checkweighing truckloads or adjusting truck weights (load blow-off or add-on) are estimated below. The savings which our on-board scales provide are based on a single truck or tractor/trailer, and based on a nominal 3 loads per day in a five day workweek. Adjust your savings numbers if your truck hauls more or less than 3 loads per day and operates more or less than 5 days per week.

Load Checkweigh Time and/or
Load Adjustment Time@ $ 40/Truck Hour
6-30 minutes per load $4 to $20 per load
3 loads per day $12 to $60 per day
15 loads per week $60 to $300 per week
60 loads per mo. $240 to $1200 per mo.
720 loads per year $2880 to $14400 per yr.

Note: Rate of $ 40.00 per hour is a nominal cost based on driver costs, fuel and maintenance expense and other direct operating costs. It does not include the cost of other personnel and equipment needed for load adjustment or checkweighing.
