Transporting an ECV between Disney and an off site resort?

[DougK]

Does Mears (or some other company) offer a taxi service that will also take an ECV? On our upcoming trip we are beginning our stay at the Beach Club for a few days, then we will move to an off-site hotel for the weekend, then we will be staying at the Polynesian for the rest of our trip. The ECV rental company will drop it off at the Beach Club and pick it up from the Poly but I need to get it to the offsite hotel for a few days in between.

I am a large guy who cannot use a mini-scooter or a Go Go scooter. I usually end up with a full size Pride Victory scooter which in theory can be broken down and placed in a larger-sized car trunk, but I am not able to get it in and out of the trunk in my condition. Also we have found that no matter what they say those Pride Victory scooters don't always come apart very easily.

So this means I will need to transport the ECV to and from an offsite hotel for a few days in the middle of our vacation. I was thinking maybe a local taxi service (Mears?) might do this but I wanted to find out if any of you have actually done this and what your experience was, about how much does it cost, etc?

Thank you!

Post #2 of the disABILITIES FAQs thread pinned near the top of this forum has some information about accessible taxi vans. Scroll to the end of that post, after the list of offsite vendors.

Enjoy your vacation!

Thank you. I guess it is as simple as calling Mears when I need them to come pick me up but I am still hoping to hear from someone who has had some personal experience with this just to get a feel for the process and also to find the approximate cost compared to a "regular" taxi.
