A weight-determining device ( 106 ) is mounted in the container engagement portion ( 102 ). The apparatus can includes data input and out devices, such as an optical connection ( 406 ) and a display ( 110 ). When a container, such as a piece of luggage, is engaged and lifted by the apparatus, the container weight along with the date and time are output on a display.
