Transport Wheelchairs

WHAT IS A TRANSPORT WHEELCHAIR?

Transport wheelchairs are lightweight, folding mobility devices that combine the function of a wheelchair with the maneuverability of a rollator or walker. They are designed to be lightweight, foldable for easy storage and transport.

These types of wheelchairs may be folded into the back of the trunk or your SUV and can be used for travel on a cruise ship. Some of the latest transport wheelchairs are TSA and airline approved due to their spill-proof and flame-proof batteries.

Transport wheelchairs are usually purchased as a personal mobility aid for people who are going on vacations, used for outdoor activity trips, or other types of travel outside of a wheelchair user's home. 

Having the right adult and senior transport wheelchair will help you with everyday activities and make it easier for transporting it in your trunk or SUV without the need of a wheelchair lift. 

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A WHEELCHAIR AND A TRANSPORT WHEELCHAIR?

The main difference between a wheelchair and a transport wheelchair is that standard wheelchairs are bulkier, weigh more than 100 pounds, and do not fold or disassemble, while transport wheelchairs are designed for portability and easy transportation. Many transport wheelchairs are lightweight and foldable to easy storage in your trunk or SUV. 

HOW MUCH DOES A TRANSPORT WHEELCHAIR COST?

The average price for a new transport wheelchair is $500 to $3,900. The price depends on the size, model type, weight capacity, and features. Higher-end and more expensive portable models will have more features, be lightweight, foldable, have more technology, and customized options. 

HOW MUCH DOES A TRANSPORT WHEELCHAIR WEIGH?

Transport wheelchairs typically weigh between 15 lbs. to 60lbs. 

The wheelchair weight is also a big factor for the person that has to transport it. Choose a lightweight portable wheelchair if you have to lift it by yourself.
