Frequently Asked Questions

Question:

Should my local shop provide a scale for my use?

Answer:

No, but when the goods are weighed before final payment the trader must make the weight known to you by one of the following ways:
  • Telling you
  • On a receipt or ticket
  • Allowing you to see the weight on a scale.

For further information see the Trading Standards section.
