Wheelchair transportation

Our wheelchair vans are built for real chairs — including wide, tilt and power models. Passengers stay in their own chair for the whole journey, secured with a four-point system and a separate occupant belt, so nobody has to be lifted in and out of a seat they did not choose.

A passenger seated in a wheelchair is guided onto the ramp of an accessible transfer van by an attendant.

What’s included

Everything here is part of the service. Where a trip needs something extra, we quote it before you confirm.

  • Hydraulic lift or low-angle ramp

    Every wheelchair vehicle carries one or the other, so boarding never depends on being able to stand.

  • Four-point securement

    Chairs are anchored at four points and passengers wear a separate lap-and-shoulder belt — the standard used by accessible transit.

  • Chairs we can provide

    Don't have a chair, or yours is being repaired? Ask for a transport chair or a Broda chair when you book and we'll bring one.

  • Bariatric capacity

    Wide-frame chairs and higher-capacity lifts are available. Share the chair width and passenger weight so we send the right vehicle.

Who this is for

  • Passengers who use a manual, power or tilt-in-space wheelchair
  • Residents of long-term care and retirement homes attending appointments
  • Families who need a chair-accessible ride without renting a van
  • Anyone who has been told a taxi 'can't take the chair'

Good to know

  • Tell us the chair type — manual, power or tilt — and roughly how wide it is. Power chairs need extra loading time.
  • Detachable trays, oxygen cylinders and cushions travel with the passenger.
  • Our attendants are trained in safe transfer technique and will never lift a passenger without a plan.

This is not an emergency service. We provide scheduled, non-emergency transportation only. If someone needs medical help right now, call 911.
