We found 55 bad speakers in a K-mart ceiling,
I'm glad there was a rolling stair. I'm still
hurting from all the walking and climbing.
At least I haven't had to schlep any 5 ton
compressors up my 24' ladder this season, yet.

Yes, those compressors get heavy, in a hurry. I somtimes
wonder how many just get left on the roof.

Getting the old compressors *off* the roof top isn't the problem. Gravity is
a wonderful thing :-)
I bullseyed a steel trash can filled with table slops with a 7 1/2 ton trane
compressor from the top of a second story roof. :-)

I can carry a 5 ton up a ladder but I can't quite make it
with a 7 1/2. The last place had a dumpster next to the
wall but the darn compressor was under warranty and I had
to carry it back down. The box sure helps pad your shoulder.
After a couple of days rest, I can probably carry another.
