Why Hire a Mobility Scooter or Wheelchair in Epping?
Holidays or Short Breaks
Lots of people use our short-term hire service to ensure that they have the equipment required when they decide to take short breaks or holidays. This can make the difference between being able to travel away from home and not. Sometimes it is to save luggage space in the car, for example when hiring a mobility scooter or wheelchair, and some items simply cannot be transported, such as mobility scooters and wheelchairs which do not fold. We regularly deliver a variety of items to hotels and apartments in Epping and surrounding areas, as well as holiday parks and private residences.
Temporary Use
Many people will hire equipment from us after an injury, such as a broken leg, or elective surgery such as a hip or knee replacement, when the equipment will only be required for a short time to aid the client’s recovery. Many private hospitals and clinics do not issue the equipment required, and with increased cutbacks in the NHS, patients are required to source the equipment themselves. Most of the time it will be more cost-effective to hire the equipment, rather than purchase the items, once the client has recovered they are not left with equipment that they have no use for. We always make it clear within our price structure if an item will be cheaper to purchase rather than hire, however, some clients still prefer to hire the items.
Repair of Own Equipment
Some clients decide to hire a wheelchair or mobility scooter from us if theirs has been sent away for repair. Mobility equipment helps people to remain independent, and they do not want to lose their independence if their own equipment is faulty or breaks down. Short-term hires can provide them with a solution to ensure that they are not left without the equipment to meet their needs.
Trial Hire
Finding the right item to purchase can be a daunting experience, with so many manufacturers and models to choose from, how do clients know what item will suit them? With short-term hire clients are able to try the items such as electric mobility scooters or manual wheelchairs, within the environment that they will be used, to ensure that it will meet their needs, before committing to purchasing.
