A technique is provided for facilitating access into a truck bed. The technique utilizes a step assembly which is foldable between an operational configuration and a folded, transport configuration. The foldable step assembly may comprise a support structure having an attachment end which may be sized for receipt in a hitch receiver of a vehicle, e.g. a truck. The foldable step assembly also may comprise an upper step structure having an upper step mounted to an upper step frame pivotably coupled with the support structure for pivoting movement between a lateral position and an upright transport position. Additionally, a handrail may be pivotably coupled with the upper step structure for pivoting movement between an upright use position and a folded transport position. Furthermore, the step assembly may comprise a lower step structure having a lower step and a lower step frame constructed for pivoting movement between a lower lateral position and a position folded over the upper step.
