How to Transport the Companion GC540 Mobility Scooter

A common question for heavy-duty models, including the Golden Companion HD 3-wheel, is, “How will I transport my scooter?” Customers with vans may be able to lift the front of the scooter into the cargo area, and then lift the rear to roll it into the van. Other customers opt to use some kind of trailer. If these options do not work, a vehicle lift might be the perfect solution. If you have a heavy-duty vehicle, truck, or SUV, a lift can be installed into the hitch receiver. This way, you can safely transport your scooter when embarking on a road trip or traveling to any destination that is too far to ride the scooter itself. If you want to learn more about a vehicle lift, please call our non-commissioned sales experts. Be prepared to provide your vehicle's year, make, and model so that we can confirm the compatibility of your vehicle with the Golden Companion GC540. Compatibility is dependent on your vehicle’s tongue weight and towing capacity.
