🛞 Roll Into the Magic: Wheelchair & ECV Rentals at Disney World

Need help planning a mobility-friendly Disney vacation?
👉 Tammy & Friends Travel is ready to help you glide into the magic stress-free!

Ready to make some magical memories — without the marathon walking? ✨ Whether you need a bit of extra support or you're cruising on four wheels, Walt Disney World makes it easy to navigate the parks with comfort and independence. 💪♿

From classic wheelchairs to electric convenience vehicles (aka scooters), Disney’s got options to help everyone explore the magic at their own pace.

Let’s roll through the details! 🛼

💡 What Are Your Mobility Options?

Disney offers two main types of rentals:

🔹 Wheelchairs:

Manual, push-yourself (or get-a-buddy) style. Perfect for guests who can move independently or with a little help.

• Cost: $12/day or $10/day with Length of Stay rental

• Available at: All 4 theme parks, water parks, and Disney Springs

🔹 ECVs (Electric Conveyance Vehicles):

Aka scooters 🛵. These are motorized and super popular for guests with mobility challenges who want to zip through the parks with ease.

• Cost: $65/day + refundable deposit ($20–$100 depending on location)

• Available at: Same as wheelchairs — just keep in mind these go fast!

⚠️ Important: Both options are first-come, first-served and cannot be taken between locations — so you’ll need to return them before park hopping.
But hang onto your receipt! You won’t have to pay again. 🙌

 

🏨 Staying Onsite? Rent Like a Pro

If you want a device for the entire trip (not just in the parks), Disney has featured providers who will deliver scooters or wheelchairs right to your resort — no hassle, no lines.

One great option is ScooterBug, Disney’s preferred vendor. You’ll find:

• ✅ Multi-day rentals

• ✅ Flexible pick-up/drop-off

• ✅ Extra features like cup holders and baskets 🧃🧺

You can also bring your own! Personal wheelchairs and scooters are totally allowed in parks, on transportation (buses, monorails, Skyliner), and even into attractions. 🚌🚠

✨ Extra Accessibility Perks

Whether you rent or bring your own wheels, here are even more ways Disney rolls out the red carpet:

♿ Accessible Transportation

• All Disney buses, monorails, Skyliner gondolas, and watercraft are wheelchair- and ECV-accessible.

• Just let a Cast Member know, and they’ll help with secure boarding!

• Guests on ECVs may be asked to transfer to a regular seat for safety.

🅿️ Disability Parking

• Designated accessible parking spots are available at every park and resort.

• You’ll need a valid disability permit, and some locations allow you to skip the tram entirely!

🧑🦽 Cushions & Transfers on Attractions

• Many attractions offer cushioned seating and accessible boarding.

• In some cases, guests may need to transfer from their chair or scooter — Cast Members are happy to guide, though they cannot lift.

🪑 Show & Theater Seating

• Reserved accessible seating is available in most theaters and entertainment venues. Just ask a Cast Member for assistance!

🚻 Companion Restrooms

• Located throughout all parks and resorts, these larger restrooms make it easier for caregivers to assist.

🧠 Combining With DAS

• If you also experience sensory or cognitive challenges, the DAS pass can work alongside your mobility accommodations for the smoothest experience ever!

🧾 How to Rent – Step by Step

1. 🎟 Head to the rental location near the park entrance (there’s signage — and friendly Cast Members!)

2. 💵 Pay for the day — or the full length of stay

3. 🚗 Cruise through the park in comfort!

4. 🚪 Return your wheels before exiting the park or boarding a bus/monorail/etc.

 

❓FAQs – Fast Facts for Smooth Cruising

Can I take my rental on the monorail or Skyliner?
Disney rentals stay inside the parks — but your personal wheelchair or scooter can go on all transportation.

Can I pre-reserve a Disney wheelchair or ECV?
Nope — it’s first-come, first-served. Get there early if you can!

Is there a weight limit?
Yes! ECVs generally have a maximum weight of 450 lbs.

What if I’m staying offsite?
Third-party vendors (like ScooterBug) will still deliver to nearby hotels or vacation rentals — just book in advance.
