Strollers: rent or take?

[lfrobison]

Is it worth the price to rent everyday, or should we take our own umbrella strollers?

How about a stroller swap? it saves you lugging it down and a ton of money (vs. renting at the park). They are under the budget boards in case you did not know that. Have fun

How old are the kids? How many do you have? How far apart are they?

My recs would be different based on all that.

taking or renting depends on what you need, when you are going, and how you are going -

for under 3-4 we usually take our own - it helps in the airport - between buses - getting into the parks - and getting around the resorts - especially when they are tired and sleepy - so we take our own -

in the parks - a stroller is helpful even up to 5-6 - especially in epcot - it's a lot of walking - and rest time - you can move faster and they get a rest - so they are good going in and out - but you can rent when you get there -

if you're renting - figure out how expensive it's going to be - even if it's a cheap rinky-dink stroller - it may be cheaper to bring your own and leave it there -

and if you're flying - bring the stroller up to the gate - they will gate check it - and you'll have it when you get into you stop -

If you don't want to take your own and can't get your dates on the stroller swaps, try Orlandostrollerrental.com. They will have it waiting for you at your resort and you leave it for them to pick up. Prices are very reasonable.
