    Default How to get onto a flatbed easily

    So my knee is screwed up, which means climbing up the back of the trailer is kinda rough. Anyone know of a ladder device or such that hooks onto the rail or anything like that at all?
    Info appreciated.

    Try to use that to get off the trailer and you will end up on top of the next trailer over.

    My son went to Lowes and got one for $100.00, folds real neat and locked to the headache rack to 4 ft. Can extend or position it in several different configurations to I think 7 ft.??? Uses it all the time as he has bum knees to.
