lastbilsvåg / bilvåg


Explanation:
A friend of my who used to be a vegetable farmer growing sugarbeets explained how they drive onto the scales with the loaded truck and weigh it with the load on and then, after having unloaded the beets, the truck is weighed again. He used the word "bilvåg" and also accepted lastbilsvåg - not "truckvåg" in Swedish, according to him.

It all depends on what vehicle they use. In Sweden they would come either with a lorry or with a tractor with bogie wagons.
