The building was built in 1913 & now residential communities surround the property. Semi Truck & Trailer best route option is to: Exit 234B to 35 Service road-right on 3rd & then left on Medina scale entrance is the 1st left. If no other driver is scaling you can pull straight in exit truck and go to the window. Everyone was super nice & helpful getting in & out of the facility.
