Why a Harbor Freight Scaffold Is a Must-Have for RV Detailing
When it comes to detailing RVs, 5th wheels, and travel trailers in Philadelphia and South Jersey, having the right equipment is just as important as using the best products. One tool that has transformed how we detail large vehicles is the Harbor Freight multipurpose scaffold. For under $250, this rolling scaffold outperforms ladders in almost every way—and here's why you should seriously consider adding one to your detailing setup.
Ladders Are Limiting—Scaffolds Let You Work Smarter
Detailing with a ladder means constantly climbing up and down, repositioning every few feet, and standing uncomfortably for long periods. This not only adds time to your job but can lead to mistakes or missed spots—especially when trying to compound and polish the nose of a 5th wheel.
With a 6-foot scaffold from Harbor Freight, you can comfortably sit or stand and move side-to-side effortlessly. It's stable, it rolls, and it gives you a much wider workspace—perfect for washing, waxing, and polishing above slide-outs and awnings.
Real-World Benefits from the Road
- ✅ Transportable in a Honda Odyssey van
- ✅ Supports 900 lbs – plenty for your tools and gear
- ✅ Wide enough to reach across RV panels without constant movement
- ✅ Lets you keep polishers, buckets, and towels right next to you
If you’ve ever struggled to reach a rooftop AC unit or the upper trim above an awning, you know how frustrating and tiring ladders can be. This scaffold makes your workflow safer and far more efficient. Honestly, we wish we bought it before our first major RV polishing job.
