New Weighing Policy Affects Pittsburg Shippers
Pittsburg shippers face a new rule requiring weighing of all outbound and inbound freight as the Weighing and Inspection Bureau extends its program. Lines will weigh every carload and almost every package, with excess weight charged to consignees. The move aims to curb overloading that has caused breakdowns and wrecks, and may double clerk staff as outbound traffic is weighed.
