Transport Chair

Transport Wheelchair Rental

Transport Chairs are lightweight and strong, making them easy to transport. These ultra-light wheelchairs have small, maintenance-free wheels that provide a smooth ride over most surfaces. Unlike other types of wheelchairs, Transport Charis are meant to be pushed by a caregiver, as their small wheels mean they can't be self-propelled. These chairs comes standard with swing away footrests and padded armrests to provide additional comfort. They also come with rear wheel locks to ensure safety. Transport chairs easily fold for convenient storage and transportation.

Scootaround offers these wheelchairs with weight capacities of up to 250 lbs (varies by location).

Standard Wheelchair

Standard Wheelchair Rental

Manual wheelchairs are a simple and lightweight mobility solution that are ideal in many scenarios. They are highly maneuverable and easily transported. They can also be folded down to fit into the trunk of virtually any sized vehicle.

Manual wheelchairs are self-propelled, meaning they require human power in order to move. Depending on user preference and capability, the manual chair can be pushed by the person riding in the chair or by a companion. The outer rims on the large rear wheels are made for gripping easily with your hands. They also have adjustable foot rests which provide a comfortable riding level for most users. If needed, the foot rests can be swiveled up to allow the rider to plant their feet firmly on the ground. Standard wheelchairs are flexible but still sturdy, and are also much lighter than powered wheelchairs. This makes them easier to store. To collapse the chair, simply pull up on the flexible seat and press the arm rests together.

Scootaround offers these wheelchairs with weight capacities of up to 350 lbs (varies by location).


Accessories Available: Gel Cushion, Elevating Legrests, Canopy, and Cupholder

HD Wheelchair

Heavy-Duty Wheelchair Rental

HD manual wheelchairs are similar to the Standard manual wheelchair model, but are designed to handle a higher weight capacity. Depending on user preference and capability, Heavy Duty wheelchairs can be driven by the person riding the chair or pushed by a companion. The outer rims on the large rear wheels are made for easy gripping when the user prefers moving on their own. Although it is capable of handling more weight, HD wheelchairs are still collapsible for easy transport or storage. To collapse the chair, simply pull up on the flexible seat and press the arm rests together. HD manual wheelchairs are much lighter than even the smallest powered wheelchair options.

Scootaround offers these wheelchairs with weight capacities of up to 400 lbs (weight and model varies by location).
