Wondering where to rent a wheelchair? Special Needs Group is here to help you travel safely and comfortably. Manual wheelchairs are light, maneuverable and collapsible. If you are on a smaller ship or if you are traveling with a companion who is willing to push the wheelchair, renting a manual wheelchair may be the best option. When cruising, there are times when a passenger must use the ship’s tenders (small boats) to visit ships’ ports of call. Because situations may occur where mobility scooters may not be carried off-board, such as sea conditions, we encourage guests to ask about ordering a manual wheelchair in addition to their mobility scooter. We generally recommend mobility scooters when you are on a larger ship, have not used a wheelchair for travel before and when you want your independence. There are advantages to both — make sure you are ordering the right mobility aid for the elderly or those with limited mobility.
Customers who rent a wheelchair online have an option of four types of special needs wheelchairs: transport, standard, heavy-duty or bariatric. The maximum weight capacity for the rental wheelchairs is as follows: standard companion/transport wheelchairs – 249 lbs.; heavy-duty companion/transport wheelchairs – 349 lbs.; bariatric companion/transport wheelchairs; standard wheelchairs – 249 lbs.; heavy-duty wheelchairs – 349 lbs.; bariatric wheelchairs – 500 lbs.
