Can You Rent an Electric Wheelchair?

Sometimes, life can throw you a curveball and you might find yourself needing mobility assistance even if it’s just for a short amount of time. Thankfully, there are some options that you can explore when it comes to renting an electric wheelchair or scooter.

What can I rent?

When it comes to renting mobility equipment, there are many different options for you. You may have seen the option to rent a three or four-wheel scooter like these at your local amusement park or shopping mall. While scooters are an option you can also rent an electric wheelchair, or even a power lift recliner.

What do I need?

There are many selections and options when it comes to a power wheelchair or scooter. Some factors to consider are:

Seat size: when you are looking for a comfortable rental, you can take a few measurements to see what seat best fits you. Your seat width and back-to-back knee measurements are a good starting point to help maximize your comfort.

Weight capacity: knowing the weight range for a scooter or wheelchair is important to ensure that you have the right model for your body.

Footprint: Knowing what type of environment you’ll maneuver through is a huge factor in making your selection. Scooters and electric wheelchairs can range from compact to full sized, much like a vehicle. Some full-sized scooters would not be able to navigate comfortably through narrow spaces like a compact scooter would.

Front-wheel, Mid-wheel, or Rear-Wheel Drive: Electric wheelchairs can have a drive wheel that is positioned near the front, middle or rear of the base. Each offesr a different feel when it comes to maneuverability and steering. Selecting one that is most fluid and natural to you is important.
