ECV Rental at Universal

[jflatto]

I need to use an ECV (i.e., scooter) due to a fused ankle for extended distances. At Disney, I typically rent from Apple Scooter and the scooter is waiting for me at Bell Services when we arrive via Magical Express. At Universal, it appears that Walker Mobility is the only approved off-site rental company and I actually need to meet with them to give me the scooter. I didn’t realize this the last time I went to Universal as I tried to have the scooter waiting for me upon arrival just to learn after I arrived that they couldn’t drop off the scooter if I wasn’t there. It then became a hassle the next morning to wait for delivery in person.

Does anyone know if Walker is the only company that can deliver to Universal and whether there is a way to have a scooter just dropped off and waiting for me at Bell Services at the Hard Rock Hotel? I am quite comfortable using a scooter and haven’t run anyone down, nor had any issues getting on or off the buses at Disney.


Thanks.

Jflatto I would give Walker Mobility a call back. The cost for rental is done over the phone and the window of time for delivery is also settled over the phone. If you call them and you know the window of time you will be arriving fairly well they can have the scooter delivery person meet you in the lobby of the resort. They have all different sizes of scooters to accommodate various weight sizes as well as many colors to choose from if you like. They were very helpful when I used them a few years ago.
