Do they run out of strollers?

[aliceg]

We're heading to WDW in May. We'll be doing maybe 2-3 days in the parks (MK and maybe HS?), a water park, Legoland, and some other hang-out-and-swim-and-mini-golf-days. My boys will be 4 and 5 when we go. And they have not ridden in a stroller since our last Disney trip, when they were 2 and 3. We don't even have a stroller anymore, since we passed our beloved Maclaren Twin Triumph on to family.

So. This trip, we'd like to maybe try and stay for fireworks, which I think is at 9:30 pm? Roughly an hour after my children are usually asleep. They will be tired and will want to be carried, and I don't want to lose anyone in a swarm of people trying to leave. And I just found out I'm pregnant, so I'll be about 17 weeks, and will NOT be able to carry a 45 lb boy.

Can we rent a stroller from MK later in the day, or are they all gone in the morning? I don't want to rent one in the morning, because they're 4 and 5 and they just don't need to be in a stroller all day. In the evening, yes, it would probably be a good idea to give them someplace to safely be with their tired selves and not carry them. Can we just go to the stroller rental place in the afternoon and pick one up?

Thank you!

I've never seen them run out of strollers when I have been in the parks, but the summer is usually some of the busiest times of the year. I'd imagine they'd have some, but there's always a possibility of them running out of strollers.

I can't imagine that they would, but the cost is such an investment. We had planned to rent and when we got the sticker shock went outside to the stand and both the $49 dollar red and black umbroller type stroller for the trip.

As it was used for dgs you children's age it mainly was there for a back up, small cooler and backpack with change of clothes. He didn't need it 100% of time! but was there when he did.

It went back for three more trips that year. For the nominal cost if you do not want to drag it home, pass it forward.
