stroller rental other than Disney??

[nonzerosum]

Stroller questions are forever being posted on the WDW threads, but haven't noticed here so I'll ask. Do you rent DL strollers, bring your own, or are there other local companies that rent strollers and drop them off at your hotel (this is done by orlando stroller rentals, which we had a good experience with)?

always take my own, mainly so i know that i can recline the kiddos when they are napping. As far as a company to drop off i am not certain never looked into it. I have rented the DLR strollers once they are okay, again for the kids comfort during naps i just bring my own.

Just recently I saw a link in a signature, on mouseplanet, to http://www.travelbabees.com. It was a MP member who is the one running the OC part of that site, or at least an employee, talking about how she delivers to the hotels all the time.

Before I saw that post I didn't know there was a DLR area company like that. She doesn't have the kind of stroller I would use with an older kid, but she might have something for you.


We've done both disney rentals and bring your own. We like to bring our own, if we have to choose a fave. The main problem with renting is that walk back to the hotel at night...jsut when EVERYONE could really use a break, you have to turn in the stroller and either cajole a tired exhausted (possibly whiney) kid to walk, or carry them, and neither sounds good to me once they are over 35 or so pounds.

We are bringing two strollers, one for each child (7 months and 3 1/2 years). We are renting ( staying a GCH) a high chair for the room, an exersaucer and step stool (for DD1 to reach potty/sink) from a rental company the concerige (spelling) recommended when I called. They gave me the name of two local companies they deal with (and yes they have a great choice of strollers) Babies Away and Travel Babies. We are using Babies Away as they were quick to respond and gave a good quote. They will be waiting at the bell desk when we arrive and we are to return the items to the Bell Desk when we leave. Easy!

Thanks for starting this thread. I just looked at Baby Away's price list. I thought $54.00/week for a jogging stroller was perfect.

Don't get me wrong, we're not "joggers", but it's nice to have an easy to use stroller at the parks. We'll use an umbrella stroller for airport maneuvers, but being kinda a tall guy, I can't push those umbrella strollers very far.

Thanks for the tip!
