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.
