Got a step stool to wash roof

[allanmac]

I don't yet have side steps or rock sliders and had two problems:

1. Despite being tall, there was no way to reach the top of the roof at the car wash without engaging in one-armed acrobatics -- one arm holding the rack and the other holding the pressure washer.
2. It is tricky getting my very senior parent into the passenger seat.

Instead of getting a ladder or stand, I opted to get a "US Weight Yellow Safety Step" [1] because not only is it tall at 14.5" but it also doubles as a storage bin when not in use.

It has a non-skid surface too.

So far it's working out well!

Being 5' 9" I would need to stack them.

That eldoret blue is such a beautiful colour isn't it. I should really wash mine so it looks a bit less Donny grey.

Useful (I have one) but perhaps his senior parent might struggle
