Theres a lot of argument around which method is best. There are calipers which you can purchase cheaply and use at home. The accuracy of this way depends on the person testing you be it yourself or say a technician at the gym. There is biofeedback or bioimpedence. Scales are sold now that use this method, however again the accuracy depends on what time of day, water retention etc. Underwater weighing seems to be the method of choice for accuracy but there are arguments for and against this as well.
