If you had to remove only bulbs and fixtures were at 12' would you use a ladder or rent a lift? I would get paid for the lift but don't to include if it doesn't make sense. Thanks
It's open.What kind of obstacles in the way? Office furniture? Clear space? Warehouse with racks??
Lift or ladder, you're still going to have a lot of time going up and coming down and re-positioning to the next fixture. How are your knees?
Plus there is a safety factor of having to carry items up/down the ladder having to use one, or both hands, to carry the material.Personally, if it's a half day or more on that ladder, I'm renting a lift, if for nothing more than to be safer. I hate being on tall ladders.
And trying to do a fixture swap on top of a ladder with nothing but a small bit of real estate at the top to rest things on. It's such a pain, and you either have to play teeter totter with your materials or make lots of long trips up and down (with a hand full).Plus there is a safety factor of having to carry items up/down the ladder having to use one, or both hands, to carry the material.
Then you would need a driver for the scaffold!I would use a scaffold with wheels.
What are you doing this weekend????Then you would need a driver for the scaffold!![]()
