WALCOTT, IOWA -- CAT Scale Co. has entered into an agreement with Hargett Enterprises Inc., to purchase Interstate Scales from the company.
For the time being, CAT Scale will operate Interstate Scales intact, while scale sites are evaluated. "We see this as a win-win," says Delia Moon Meier, Senior Vice President, CAT Scale Company. "We are excited about this. Interstate has a fully equipped and fully staffed office, technical center and warehouse in Evansville, Indiana. With both offices, we are now only a one day drive to 70% of our scales."
Interstate Scales consists of 143 truck [image-nocss] scale locations throughout the United States, located at truckstops.
"CAT Scale is a good company. They have a great reputation with drivers, and I see this as a big positive for Interstate Scale locations," said Wayne Hargett of Hargett Enterprises.
CAT Scale Company is part of Iowa 80 Group that also owns and operates Iowa 80 TA Truckstop, Walcott, Iowa; Petro Stopping Centers in Joplin and Oak Grove, Mo.; Kenly 95 TA Truckstop, Kenly, N.C.; Truckomat Truck Washes; IOWA80.COM mail-order catalog and e-commerce website; and the Iowa 80 Trucking Museum, Walcott, Iowa.
