I have to stand on top rung of my 6 ft ladder to replace the battery. Since the FD offers to do this as a public service why not take advantage of it.
BTW we moved here from Roanoke Va and they did this also. My daughter in DC has this service available as well.

A truly simple solution, buy an 8 foot ladder. You will need it to change light bulbs etc. A newer ladder will have a sign NOT to stand on the top steps.
