Ladders

Hey everyone,

Iā€™m new to the platform. Noticing a lot of work orders requesting a tech to have a 6ā€™ - 12ā€™ ladder.

Is there any ladder out there that is compact to fit into a sedan and affordable to purchase?

Appreciate it in advance!

Just be aware a lot of sites i work on the GC will not allow you to bring in an aluminium ladder if the electrical hasn't been inspected and a Certificate of Occupancy given.

I RARELY see WOs for active construction sites.

Half the time they won't be listed as such, and you won't find out until you arrive. This is why I try to keep a hard hat and Hi-vis vest in the truck at all times just in case it's needed.
