Check with your neighbors? We had a massive 60' ladder that made the rounds of one old neighborhood I lived in. We all needed to paint the front and side gable ends on our Victorian era houses. I have no clue who actually owned it, but the basic drill was you found out who had it, got your neighbor on each side to help you carry it and set it up, then the guy next door got it next and so it went around a 4-6 block area.
