Hi all,

I have a set of Aluminium ladders that I do not need any more, which I would hope a fellow PH'er will be able to use.

They are twin rung, EXTREMELY HEAVY DUTY...approx. 19foot long, and will reach to around 32ft. They cost me new when I bought them new 25 years ago just under £500.

They are rope assisted, (but you do not need to use the rope to extend), The brand is "Climba" and they are class "A" industrial use, although they have only been used about six times domestically and are in first class condition.

I cannot stress enough how long and heavy they are, so you will need to bring either a flat wagon, or a heavy duty roof rack and plenty of rope.

Ideal for a Builder/Handyman etc.

They are situated in Rossendale, mid way between Bury and Burnley in Lancashire.

PM me if you would like them, I would like them out of the way ASAP.

First to turn up can take them away.

Cheers.

Wacky.

OK, no takers so far, I will leave the offer open for a couple of days, then they are going on Gumtree/eBay.

Remember these are class "A" industrial ladders, not the usual lightweight rubbish found in D-I-Y sheds and cost a lot of money.

I would love them, but would have no way of transporting something that length. I am sure someone will be able to put them to good use.

Another vital beer for your offer to a fellow PH'r.

Not for me but good man regardless.

I would take them, but transport may be difficult. If you haven't shifted them by tomorrow or Tuesday I will try and find a ban with a roof rack.

cheers, I will bear that in mind, might need them later in the year.

In this case I'm just being an opportunist, I don't actually need any just now. smile

Someone is supposed to be coming to pick them up tonight, but if he doesn't show, I'll give this thread a bump in a day or so.
