Patio steps

[tinner12002]

With the newer toy haulers having rear patios setup with steps supplied to access the patio deck, Has anyone come up with a way to haul the loose steps when you have toys in the garage? I had commented to a couple manufacturers that it would be nice to have an underside storage compartment where the steps could be stored/carried when not in use or needed and not having to handle them every time you load/unload the toys. Any other ideas??

Absolutely. As it is now they are just in the way. I carried them on the top bunk for a while until I realized they were scratching up my ceiling.

Sure. As long as they are out of the way when being stored. But we have two patios and the real need for the steps just isn't there.

I don't carry mine either.

We don't have them just for that reason. As full-timers we don't need anything more to haul. And, since we have the outside door to the garage, that gives ample access to the garage and patio for us.

No more than we use them, the trouble isn't worth it. So usually, they stay home.

But when we do take them, they slide underneath the golf cart. The golf cart is lifted so they fit fine. But an ATV or motorcycle, that wouldn't work.
