Truck Scale Buyers Guide
Financing Your Truck Scale Project
Posted by Steve Mizerak on
At ScaleTrader.net we get this question quite often:
“I want to buy a new truck scale, but it’s a lot of money, and I’m not sure we can afford it right now”.
When buying a new or used truck scale, aside from the cost of the actual scale itself, there are several other costs that are involved when pricing out your total project costs.
- Delivery Cost
- Concrete Foundation Cost
- Crane Cost (or heavy equipment) to offload the scale onto the concrete foundation
- Installation, test and commissioning/certification cost
When factoring all equipment costs and the other costs above, a total cost of truck scale project in today’s world may cost more than $100,000! Business owners must plan carefully and the number one rule in business is–watch your cash flow!
