Truck Scale Market Report 2026

The truck scale market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.66 billion in 2025 to $2.84 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to expansion of logistics and freight transportation, growth in road infrastructure development, increasing enforcement of vehicle weight regulations, rising use of weighbridges in mining operations, availability of advanced load sensing technologies.

The truck scale market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.65 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing adoption of smart transportation infrastructure, rising investments in logistics automation, expansion of e-commerce freight movement, growing demand for real-time compliance monitoring, increasing use of cloud-based weight data systems. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing deployment of digital truck weighing systems, rising adoption of in-motion weighing technology, growing integration of iot-enabled load monitoring, expansion of modular portable truck scales, enhanced accuracy through advanced load cell design.

The growth in logistics and freight volumes is expected to drive the growth of the truck scale market going forward. Logistics and freight volumes refer to the total quantity of goods transported and managed through various supply chain networks, encompassing the movement, storage, and handling of shipments across different transportation modes. This growth is fueled by increasing international trade activities, as the rising exchange of goods across borders boosts demand for efficient transportation and supply chain services. Truck scales support logistics and freight operations by ensuring accurate weight measurement of vehicles and loads, enhancing efficiency, safety, and regulatory compliance across transportation processes. For example, in June 2025, according to the United States Department of Transportation, a US-based government department, cross-border U.S. freight shipments with Canada and Mexico totaled $144.8 billion in March, representing an 8.4 percent increase compared to March 2024. Therefore, the growth in logistics and freight volumes is driving the growth of the truck scale market.

Primary companies operating in the truck scale market are focusing on developing innovative solutions, such as in-motion weighing systems, to enhance weighing efficiency, accuracy, and throughput in high-traffic operations. In-motion weighing systems are advanced technologies that measure the weight of vehicles or loads while they are moving, without requiring them to stop on the scale. For instance, in January 2025, Rice Lake Weighing Systems Inc., a US-based manufacturing company, launched Survivor OTR-IMS, an in-motion truck scale system designed to enhance efficiency in high-volume operations by enabling trucks to be weighed without stopping. The system features a patent-pending single-draft weighing technology that provides legal-for-trade weights for vehicles traveling at speeds of up to 6 miles per hour, ensuring smooth traffic flow. It includes the 1280 Enterprise Series weight indicator, LaserLight3 remote display, and a DOT-grade speed sensor, and is compatible with both new and existing SURVIVOR OTR truck scales with steel or concrete decks. The OTR-IMS system boosts facility throughput, reduces emissions by minimizing idle time, lowers maintenance needs by decreasing braking, and enhances safety by allowing drivers to complete weighing transactions directly from their cabs.

In November 2024, Michelli Weighing and Measurement Inc., a US-based industrial measurement and calibration services company, acquired American Scale LLC for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, Michelli aimed to expand its service footprint into Kentucky and Indiana and enhance its nationwide support capabilities. American Scale LLC is a US-based company providing truck scales.
