Why Hire A Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle?
There are many reasons why people choose to hire a Brotherwood converted Wheelchair Accessible vehicle.
- Holidays.
- Visits to friends and relatives.
- Days out
- Opportunity to try a vehicle you might be interesting before purchasing.
- Transport that can be used during a time of sickness or temporary disability.
- A vehicle to keep you mobile when your own WAV might be having repairs carried out.
How does it Work?
Between us we will determine which vehicle from our comprehensive range will best suit your needs. You need to think about the following questions:
- Will the wheelchair passenger want to sit up front next to the driver or centrally in the vehicle?
- How many people will need to travel in the vehicle?
- Do I require a Manual or Automatic Gearbox?
- When will I need the vehicle for?
We will then check if a vehicle is available for that period and if necessary reserve it for you.
The vehicle can be collected either from our factory near Sherborne, Dorset or from our Sales Agent near Lockerbie, Dumfries and Galloway. In picking up the vehicle from our factory, if you decide to travel by train, the closest railway stations are Yeovil Junction on the London Waterloo-Exeter line or Yeovil Pen Mill on the Bristol-Weymouth line.
When collecting the vehicle you will get full instruction on how to safely load, secure and unload the wheelchair.
Arrangements can be made to deliver the vehicle to you for an additional cost if you are unable to collect.
What period can I hire the vehicle for?
Our vehicles can be hired from 1 week up to whatever period you require. There is an average mileage limit of 100 miles per day.
What Vehicles are available to hire?
Our full ranges of vehicles are usually available to hire including the Peugeot Partner Tepee, the smallest vehicle in our range, right up to the Kia Sedona, subject to availability of course.
What arrangements do I need to make to insure the vehicle?
The hirer is responsible for insuring the vehicle. The vehicle must have fully comprehensive insurance for the duration of the hire period. You can arrange this yourself or we can arrange this for you for an additional charge. Our insurance can cover drivers from age 25 to 75; our insurers will consider drivers over 75 with a clean driving licence.
A £500 deposit is payable at the time of hire. This covers minor accident damage, windscreen or glass damage, insurance excess where applicable, extra valeting if the vehicle is returned to us. The deposit is refunded to you once the vehicle has been checked and signed back in.
How much will it cost me to hire the vehicle?
Vehicles can be hired from just £35.62 per day, full prices can be found on this website.
