Why Rent a Wheelchair Instead of Buying?
A new lightweight wheelchair costs $150–$600+ (aluminum and ultra-light models cost more). For travel or a few weeks of use, renting is a fraction of that.

| Upfront Cost | From $105 for 1 day | $150–$600+ |
| Delivery & Setup | FREE on your rental date | Shipping or store trip |

| Sanitization | Cleaned before delivery | Used market, unknown |
| When You're Done | We pick it up free | Bulky to store or resell |
| Flexibility | Daily, weekly or monthly | You're committed |
For a few weeks or a trip, renting costs a fraction of buying, with free delivery, free pickup, and nothing to store afterwards.

Where We Deliver in Chicago
We bring wheelchairs to homes, apartments, hotels and event venues across Chicago and the nearby suburbs. Tell us the address and the date you want it, and we'll confirm a delivery window.
Streeterville and the Magnificent Mile
Most deliveries here go to the high-rise condos and apartment towers just off Michigan Avenue. We know the loading docks and freight elevators in these buildings, so getting a wheelchair upstairs doesn't hold things up.
West Loop, Pilsen and Little Village
We're on the Near West Side most weeks. Street parking is tight around here, so we'll call when we're close and carry the wheelchair in rather than leave it at the curb.
Hyde Park, Woodlawn and Kenwood
South Side deliveries run through Hyde Park, Woodlawn and Kenwood, and out into the south suburbs. Give us the address when you book and we'll set a window for that day.
McCormick Place and Downtown Events
If you're in town for a convention at McCormick Place, we can drop the wheelchair at your hotel and collect it when you check out. We do the same for the South Loop hotels and the downtown theaters.
Lakeview, Roscoe Village and North Center
A lot of these are walk-up buildings. Let us know the floor and whether there's an elevator, and we'll plan the delivery around it.
Lincoln Park and the Lakefront
Our drivers know the building entrances and visitor parking along Lake Shore Drive, which keeps the drop-off quick. We cover Lincoln Park, Old Town and the lakefront high-rises.
Uptown, Edgewater and Andersonville
We're a familiar face at the loading areas along Marine Drive. Deliveries cover Uptown, Edgewater and Andersonville, including the lakefront buildings with rear entrances.
North Lawndale and the West Side
We deliver throughout North Lawndale, Little Village and the surrounding West Side neighborhoods. If you need the wheelchair on a particular day, book a few days ahead so we can hold one for you.
