    Calling ScootAround Tomorrow To Reserve My Scooter Rental!!!

    Thank you. I am all set! Just got the power chair reserved. It’ll look similar to the one I had on my trip in 2018 in the picture. I told the guy I spoke with on the phone at ScootAround that I had wanted a scooter that had a joystick controller. Because I was more comfortable with it than...

    Calling ScootAround Tomorrow To Reserve My Scooter Rental!!!

    My birthday trip to Disney World is four weeks away now, and I am excited! I'm going to be calling ScootAround tomorrow to reserve my scooter rental for November 1-6.

    Going To Disney World For My Birthday This Year....Renting A Scooter From The Parks This Time. Instead Of Renting One Off-Site

    Thank you. I contacted ScootAround, and they quoted me $170.00 plus tax, for a Jazzy power chair rental. For all the six days I will be there with my mom, and friends. Which I can afford. So, I am going to rent from them. I’ve rented from them before. While the first time had not been a great...

    Going To Disney World For My Birthday This Year....Renting A Scooter From The Parks This Time. Instead Of Renting One Off-Site

    I got surprised with a trip to Disney World, for my birthday on November 5th this year. Instead of renting a scooter from one of the offsite companies like I did on my trip with my family to Disney World in February 2018. I'm going to be renting an ECV from the parks. Because renting one...

    Crowds REALLY large right now?

    I’m here now, and the crowds have been crazy. Driving a rental power chair. I’ve had to really watch out for people suddenly darting out in front of me.

    Scootaround really has improved their service in my opinion

    The last time I rented from them was back in 2011. Both times the Jazzy power chairs they gave me were not good. We’re here at Disney World now, and the Jazzy power chair rental I have is awesome! The battery lasts a long time from 8AM to 6PM. Before it needs a charge. I always have taken the...

    Taking things with a grain of salt...

    Leaving tomorrow for the airport. Won't get into Orlando until late at night. But, my guy, and I will get to enjoy Disney World the next day. Both of us have visible physical disabilities. His is more mild. Mine is more in between of the moderate, and severe range. Thus requiring me to use a...

    What Accessible transportation do you use to go off site

    I've used Axxess Lynx. But, only when I am traveling with my support worker. They pick up/drop off at the hotel where we are staying. Also to Universal too.

    Where Does Scootaround meet renters at All-Star Music?

    I’m trying to remember if the person I spoke on the phone with from Scootaround told me a specific place in the lobby to meet the driver with the power chair on Thursday. I guess I should look around for an official looking person with a Scootaround jacket/sweatshirt. When I get down to the lobby.

    Rent wheelchair from WDW or 3rd party vendor?

    I would rent one from an off-site vendor. That way your son would be able to use it at his leisure, and you wouldn't have to worry about renting one in the parks. The ones you rent in the parks. You can't take out of the park. Renting one off-site. You can have with you all of the time, and the...

    Two more days before we leave, and there is excitment in the air!!

    My guy Dan, and I are very excited. Two more days to go before we leave, and we are all packed. The weird thing is. Scootaround keeps calling me about my power chair rental. I don't know why. I did everything to confirm that yes I did want the power chair rental after all the arrangements were...

    What do you do if you can not get a HA room?

    I rented a shower chair from Orlando Medical Rentals, for my trip in three days knowing full well that my mom didn't get an accessible room in the family suite at All-Star Music. They're wonderful to work with.

    Question about the family suite at All-Star Music..

    I am happy as I did rent a shower chair from Orlando Medical Rentals to be there when we get there. Knowing full well that when my mom made the reservation. She wasn't going to book an accessible room. My back with the pain, and problems I have with it. It won't let me stand in the shower/tub to...

    Dental "Emergency" at Disney??

    I had an abscessed tooth once at Disney. It caused the whole side of my jaw where the tooth was infected to swell up. The doctor at urgent care in Celebration didn't read that I was allergic to a certain medication, and he had prescribed that medication for me. The reaction to that medication is...

    Suggestions for 3rd party wheelchair/scooter rentals

    I'm renting from Scootaround. Leaving for Disney World next Wednesday, and they want to meet with me the next day. They want a face-to-face meeting on the day of pickup. It seems like they're now better than they used to be because when I rented from them back in 2011. They gave me two bad Jazzy...

    Question about the family suite at All-Star Music..

    I'm worried how it's going to work out too. My godfather is a big guy also. So is the woman that's my mom's friend that's traveling with us. I'm not sure about my mom's other friend. I hadn't seen him in a while. He's going to the conference with my mom, and my godfather. I expressed my concern...

    Question about the family suite at All-Star Music..

    I just found out that the suite has one room with a king bed. Which Dan, and I will get as he is a big guy. The rest of our party will be in the other room. Thankfully I also found out that the room with the king bed is big enough for both the rental power chair, and my walker. At least I think...

    Question about the family suite at All-Star Music..

    I know, and I intend to see that the power chair is in my sight at all times. The lady I spoke with at Scoot-A-Round went over the rental agreement with me over the phone. I will put up a fight if my godfather wants it outside. It's a regular Jazzy power chair. Much like the one I rented in the...
