Should You Rent or Buy a Mobility Scooter

Are you going on a vacation and find yourself in need of renting a mobility scooter? Do you have a lot of trouble standing for long periods of time to where you need to buy a mobility scooter to get around? Many customers that are just coming out of surgery rent mobility scooters from us because they only need them for a short period of time while recovering. Other customers buy them outright because they’re great to have and very affordable.

I made this article to help explain to users the benefits as well as the best situations when trying to choose between renting or buying a mobility scooter. If you’re a first-time buyer or renting for the first time you will definitely find use in this article as it will really help you understand what outcomes work best in these scenarios.

For those that have previously bought or rented a mobility scooter, you may already know or have a better understanding of whether you should rent or buy a mobility scooter.

Should You Rent a Mobility Scooter?

Choosing to rent a mobility scooter should not be a difficult or a long going process. Most of our rental customers are in town for a vacation and found us while searching for a mobility scooter rental in South Florida. Since we offer low rates on daily rentals, it makes sense for some customers that just need it for a day or two.

Other customers that rent from us often need a rental because they have a primary unit that is being repaired. A temporary rental is a great solution for someone that needs a mobility scooter on a daily basis if the one they normally use is being repaired.

There can be many other scenarios that would make it a wise choice to rent versus owning a mobile scooter. The most important thing to consider is the financial obligations that are required when purchasing. Usually, you can rent a scooter for around $75 but you will need to spend close to $600 (click here to see our cheap mobility scooters) to buy one. Renting is a more affordable solution if you only need one temporarily.

If you just so happen to come down to South Florida, we have a scooter rental service that we highly recommend with the best deals when going to rent a mobility scooter while down here in South Florida on vacation.

Should You Buy a Mobility Scooter

When you’re deciding on purchasing a mobility scooter you may find difficulty in purchasing the right mobility scooter not only because of the number of choices available online but also because of the prices you may see listed online. When buying a mobility scooter you should consider what you’re going to use it for.

Do you have difficulty walking for long periods of time? Did your doctor recommend it? Do you need help getting around? If you say yes to any of the above then yes it is time to consider the purchase of a reliable mobility scooter.

Rather than renting a mobility scooter and spending money daily or weekly to use it all the time, pay for it once so it’s bought and you don’t have to worry about continually putting money into it. Let’s say you don’t have an issue walking, but you walk to get around, and you’re out shopping. Walking home with tons of groceries or goods can be more than a handful, literally. If you buy a mobility scooter you can always store your belongings in a basket or in an arm bag to help take the pressure off of your arms from carrying and your legs from walking, so you can’t lose if you’re planning on buying a mobility scooter.

The bottom line is if you’re looking for a handicapped scooter to use all the time then you will definitely want to buy a mobility scooter rather than renting. We carry the best brands that are known to last a long time and our friendly sales staff are here to help you find a unit that fits your needs. We have mobility scooters that fold and compact options that are great for transporting even in small automobile trunk space. We also have off-road mobility scooters that are considered heavy-duty if you want something to go on off-road adventures with. Visit our online shop to shop from a wide variety of mobility scooters that are tax-free. We also don’t charge for shipping.

What Will You Do

Now that you know a little more information about the benefits of renting or buying a mobility scooter what will you do?

Remember that no matter what choice it is you make, it’s best to make sure you have done a little research into the reasoning behind using the mobility scooter. If you’re using the handicapped mobility scooter for a long period of time then you know you’re probably better off buying.

If you just so happen to need a mobility scooter to get around for a few days on vacation than there is no need to spend a ton of money on a brand new scooter, simply rent one and possibly save a significant amount of money.
