Default Putting air in tires

This subject might have been posted earlier, but doing a search could not find anything.

When you check your tire pressure and you need to put 110# into the tires how do you do it? Do you have a compressor, and if so what type and what is the max PSI. If you take it to a service station, how can you tell how much air to put in since the tires are hot and they will expand? Do you wait till tires cool off? Or do you check the pressure first before going so you know how much air to put in? Example: Tire checks @ 100# you need to put in 20#, so when you get to the service this is how much air you put into the tire no matter what the gauge reads when you arrive at the station. OR is there another way??

The reason I'm asking is I have a compressor but the PSI is 120# and it takes me at least 4 hook ups that is put air in the tire then what tell compressor builds back up to 120 PSI. It takes me almost an hour to fill 6 tires. There must be another way that I'm missing.
