Q26.How do I get my mobility scooter/power wheelchair into a car?


Almost transportable mobility scooters are designed to fold or dismantle into a few easy to manage pieces, which will fit easily into most cars. You simply dismantle the scooter and lift the pieces into the boot or back seat. There are various systems for dismantling and some are easier to use than others.


Larger mobility scooters may well need a different approach. Some will dismantle in much the same way as transportable scooters but you must remember that the component pats will be heavier to lift.
