Accessible Wheelchair Vans

We can't afford a $25,000 van that will more than likely be in used for the next 1-3 years. Any help would be appreciated.

PLEASE contact the ALS Association at www.als.org. Look for a chapter in your area. Most chapters have a loan program for wheelchairs, medical equipment, and augmentative communication devices. Some chapters even have vans that are donated to them. Good luck. In your area there may be some public transportation for people with disabilities. Another option is to rent a conversion van when you need it.

I would like to get information on handicap accessible vans. I am planning a trip to Puerto Rico and my son has cerebral palsy and we are in need of renting a van that has a wheel chair ramp and restrains. Any information you can provide will be helpful.

Thanks

I live in PR and I personally don't know a place that offers that but go to SuperPagesPR.com is like the yellow pages but for Puerto Rico. I enter the word wheelchair and got two results:

Wheelchair Transportation and Tours
&
Wheel Chair Shop

I'm in need of renting a wheelchair accessible van or minivan for my grandfather for one day (for my wedding this Saturday) and due to the time constraints am looking for an option that is close by for pickup and drop-off. I'm located in Hacienda Heights (91745), CA. I know about the options located around LAX and Santa Ana.

Does anyone know any closer options? Anything that would get the job done! Thanks!

I am handicapped myself, and unfortunately the closest accessible van rental is probably the agency in Santa Ana. As stated, the market for this type of vehicle is extremely limited.

Is there a dial-a-ride type of service in your area that could possible offer any help, or perhaps a medical transportation service. I see lots of these vehicles when I go to my many doctor visits. I believe there is a taxi company in Downey (Fiesta Cab) that has an accessible vehicle, but that might be too expensive.

I have MS and in a wheelchair. I am in need of a van which I can't afford to pay for.

go to a van handicapped dealer and see if your insurance can pay for it.
