Moving A Ladder
Print VersionBookmarkEmail this page to a friend.
When moving a ladder, use the right technique to avoid injuring yourself and others. The correct way to handle a ladder is to hold it upright against your body. With one hand, hold a rung about thigh level. Use your other hand to hold a rung about head high and on the opposite side of the lower rung. Set the ladder about 2 feet from where you want it and slowly lower it to position.
