Pulling my hair out!!!

Is there anyone that can drop off a crib with bell service anymore. We don't get into Orlando til 4:30 and wont get to the CBR til after 6 so I can't met either Orlando Baby or A Baby's Best Friend. Not to mention that I don't want to have to wait for them to come pick it up the day we leave(we have a early ADR)

I really need a crib. Is there anyone that will drop to BS or am I out of luck? And why does Disney only have Pack N Plays at Mod's. We are staying at CBR. We had a crib in September at the Poly and it was great.

Not happy. Help Please

If they are over 2, I would just get bed rails for the bed, then you don't have to wait for any drop off or pick up, They aren't going to be in a crib much longer anyway.

They have pack and plays because they are cheaper and easier to store and transport, and clean and maintain. And they have bed rails.

Well, can you consider doing one night without a crib? The first night and then arrange to have one of the crib delivery companies deliver first thing the next morning? I don't really see the difference between a pack and play and a crib for an older child, but if it's a must have you may have to rearrange your schedule to make it work.

I just wouldn't bother. If they're too big for a pnp they'll probably sleep fine in a bed. If we traveled somewhere w/o a crib or pnp for a kid over age 1 or so we just didn't use one. Not worth the hassle and cost to rent one.

The problem is we are staying at a Mod with 3 adults. Otherwise I would have no problem using the bedrails, but since he tosses and turns a lot my DH would not do well sleeping with him. This was a last minute budget trip and I tried to do POR with a murphy bed, but the price was a lot higher.

I found out the Kingdom Strollers can drop off at Bell Service so I guess that is who we will go with for this trip. Have not heard much about them so I will post asking that on another tread.

Our November trip is bed rails for sure. Just cant do it this trip

There is a HUGE difference between the PnP and a crib. We were given a PnP back in September and it was tiny tiny tiny. Once we called they brought us the crib we original asked for and it was a full crib and lots of room. My DS always hated PnP, but loves his crib.

What about one of those blow up ready beds, it would fit in your bags and fit in the space where you would put the crib.

I was going to recommend a blow up bed, ours has sides on it so she won't roll out and it travels easy and works great for us.

Hi:
After much research and many, many calls, we are using Kingdom Strollers which also rents cribs. They are a Disney preferred company and can drop off at Bell Services. We had tried to rent through A Baby's Best Friend but they didn't have all the nights and They aren't allowed to drop off at Bell Services anymore but meeting them wouldn't have been a problem. Kingdom Strollers doesn't have the same mattress as ABBF, (it's about 3-4 inches thick) but we are going to give it a try and if we need to we will ask for a second mattress for further thickness. All of the other companies either have that same mattress or no longer deliver to Disney because of the new policy that doesn't allow them to drop off at Bell Services.
Hope this helps!

Maybe. My kids were all out of the crib by two so my experience there is limited. I'm trying to compare it on my head, but it's been too long now. I'd be worried about the room in the room with a traditional crib, too.

We have a small collapsible cot we travel with. It folds up like those camp chairs and the kids seem to like it. It was less than $50, I think and could fit in a full size suitcase if you're flying.

We have used Kingdom strollers cribs before and been very happy with them.
