Testimonial
Are you buying a scale or a foundation for your future?
This is really the question you should be asking. The core issue is our experience history, our experience in how to locate a scale, our experience in making it convenient for you, our experience with the materials used in our foundation, our experience with the type of foundation for the environment, and lastly, our experience with a quality weighing device. Cheapest is NOT the best value in the long run.
Why buy a VBS Truck Scale?
- We install higher than recommended concrete rating (i.e. 4,000 PSI vs. 3,500 PSI)
- We install additional re-bar resulting in less foundation cracking for longer life
- Construct 12-in, or thicker, sidewalls vs. 8-in as is often found in other lower cost scales – you get a longer life
- Install 6-in of clean granular back-fill (pea-rock is our preference) for better drainage, which results in less moisture under the foundation and therefore fewer settling issues
- Incorporates a low failure rate load cell (see image directly below)
- 10 year BridgeMount heavy duty weighbridge structure warranty
- 5 year load cell warranty
