Systems and methods for mobile dimensioning and weighing are disclosed. An example mobile weighting and dimensioning system includes a truck scale system and a tape measure. The truck scale system includes: a fork scale to weigh a parcel that is held by forks; and a weight indicator to receive an indication of the weight of the parcel from the fork scale. The tape measure includes: a tape cartridge to spool and unspool a tape having electronically readable indicia; a measurement circuit to determine linear dimensions of the parcel by reading the electronically readable indicia in response to trigger events; and a communications circuit to transmit the first linear dimension of the parcel to the weight indicator. The weight indicator associates the weight and the first linear dimension with an identifier of the parcel, and transmits the weight, the first linear dimension, and the identifier to a computing system.
