# Mobile storage system with elevated platform

## Abstract

An elevated platform system includes first and second platform sections and a ladder for accessing the platform sections in an elevated position. The platform sections are aligned in longitudinal arrangement and are configured to be selectively disposed and coupled between a pair of mobile storage units. The first platform section has a proximal end portion defining an opening for receiving a ladder hook. A distal end of the first platform section can releasably couple to a proximal end portion of the second platform section. The platform sections are movable between a deployed or installed position in which they secure the first and second storage units to form an elevated walking or standing surface therebetween, and a retracted or uninstalled position in which the platform sections are detached from at least one of the mobile storage units the allow relative movement of the storage units.
