Folding vs Non-Folding Mobility Scooters for Travel

If transporting a scooter yourself is part of your plan, the way it packs down matters a lot. Travel scooters are built to come apart or fold so they fit in a car; full-size scooters are not. Knowing the difference helps you rent the one that actually suits how you will be getting around.

Oceans Mobility rents both, and delivers across New England so transport is optional.

Travel scooters: made to move

A travel scooter like the Pride GoGo is designed to disassemble into a few pieces, the frame, the seat, the battery, that fit into a car trunk, or to fold compactly on some models. This makes it the natural choice if you want to drive to different spots during your trip and bring the scooter along. The pieces still have real weight, so it helps to have someone who can handle the heaviest part. See getting a scooter into your car.

Full-size scooters: comfort and range

A full-size model like the Pride Victory 10 gives you more range, a bigger seat and a more planted ride, but it does not break down for the trunk. It is best when it will stay put at one location, a hotel, a vacation rental, an event, rather than being loaded and unloaded repeatedly.

Either way, we deliver

Because we deliver and pick up, you can choose based on comfort and range rather than only on what fits your car. Tell us your trip and your vehicle and we will match you up. Call for delivery pricing or call or text (603) 395-1246.
