Wheelchair Rental in York, Maine: Standard and Transport Chairs
York is one of the easiest Maine towns to visit with a wheelchair, as long as you have the chair. Most visitors staying in a cottage or motel near York Beach do not have one handy, and borrowing one from a relative three states away is not practical. Renting for the length of your stay solves it.
Standard or transport chair?
A standard wheelchair has large rear wheels, so the person sitting in it can push themselves along the flat stretch of road behind Long Sands. A transport chair has small wheels and weighs less, which is better if someone else always pushes and you are lifting it into the car several times a day.
Where a chair works well in York
- The sidewalk along Long Sands Beach, with the ocean on one side the whole way.
- The viewing area at Sohier Park for Nubble Light.
- The shops and food stands around Short Sands, which are close together.
The sand itself is a different job. For that, swap to a beach wheelchair for the day.
A tip for York motels
Many older beach motels have a step at the room door or a narrow bathroom. Ask for the room dimensions when you book, and measure against the chair width listed on our rental page.
