Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about renting a wheelchair accessible van in Central Ohio.
How much does it cost to rent a wheelchair van?
Rental rates vary based on duration (daily, weekly, or monthly), vehicle type, and whether you need delivery service. We offer competitive pricing with discounts for longer rentals. Submit a reservation request or call us for exact pricing based on your specific needs and dates.
What do I need to rent an accessible van?
You'll need to be at least 21 years old with a valid driver's license and full coverage auto insurance (comprehensive and collision) that extends to rental vehicles. We'll verify your insurance coverage before rental pickup. A credit card is required for the security deposit.
Can you deliver the rental van to my location?
Yes, we offer delivery service throughout Central Ohio, including Columbus, Newark, and surrounding areas. Delivery fees vary based on distance from our Lancaster location. When you submit your reservation request, let us know if you need delivery and we'll include that in your custom quote.
What's the difference between side-entry and rear-entry vans?
Side-entry vans have ramps that deploy from the side door, making them easier to use in tight parking spaces and generally more convenient for frequent use. Rear-entry vans have ramps at the back, which allows for more passenger seating but requires more clearance behind the vehicle. During your consultation, we'll help you choose the right configuration for your needs.
Does my insurance cover wheelchair van rentals?
Many auto insurance policies do cover rental vehicles, but you'll need to confirm with your insurance provider that your coverage extends to wheelchair accessible vans specifically. Some policies have restrictions on specialty vehicles. We recommend calling your insurance company before your rental date to verify coverage and avoid surprises.
How far in advance should I reserve a rental van?
We recommend reserving at least 1-2 weeks in advance when possible, especially during busy seasons (summer months and major holidays). However, we understand that some situations are urgent—call us and we'll do our best to accommodate last-minute requests based on availability.
What if my wheelchair or scooter doesn't fit?
This is exactly why we include a personal consultation with every rental. When you reserve, we'll discuss the dimensions of your mobility equipment (height, width, length, and weight) to ensure we match you with a van that accommodates it properly. If you're unsure about measurements, we can help you during the consultation.
Can I rent a van for just one day?
Yes, we offer daily rentals for single-day needs like medical appointments, special events, or short trips. Daily rates include a generous mileage allowance. We also offer discounted weekly and monthly rates if you need the van for a longer period.
Will someone show me how to operate the van?
Absolutely. We'll walk you through everything at pickup—how to operate the ramp, secure the wheelchair with tie-downs, adjust seating, and use any other features. We want you to feel completely comfortable and confident before you leave. Take as much time as you need during the walkthrough.
What if I need to extend my rental?
Just give us a call before your scheduled return date. If the van isn't reserved by another customer, we can usually extend your rental. We'll work with you on flexible terms and adjust your rate accordingly—often with better pricing for the extended duration.
Are your rental vans regularly maintained and inspected?
Yes. All of our rental vans are BraunAbility certified conversions and undergo regular safety inspections and preventive maintenance. We check ramps, tie-down systems, and all accessibility features before each rental to ensure everything is in perfect working order. Your safety and reliability are our top priorities.
Can I rent if I'm visiting from out of state?
Yes, as long as you have a valid driver's license and insurance that covers rental vehicles. We often help people visiting Central Ohio for family gatherings, medical appointments at local hospitals, or special events. We can coordinate delivery to your hotel or family member's home if needed.
