Can you uber from resort to Gainsville? Is there a better option? Reply like I have never once used an Uber in my life. Would need wheelchair accommodation.

To clarify, does the person need to remain in the wheelchair during transport or can they transfer to a vehicle seat with the wheelchair in a trunk or cargo area? Also, how many people are traveling?

From your Orlando resort? Get a new plan. It's going to be hard finding a rideshare driver willing to go that far away.

As @gottalovepluto mentioned, it will be very difficult for you to find a driver willing to go to Gainesville because chances are, they won't find a passenger who wants to go back to the Orlando area. If a driver really wanted to spend time (and time is money), they could probably piece back shorter rides and eventually get back to Orlando, but there is no real reason to do this. They are better off staying in Orlando and picking up passengers locally. And if you need an accessible vehicle, your chances are even slimmer.

We just need to bring my husband's wheelchair with us. Two people...trying to figure out a way to get from here to there without renting a car. I even looked at flying from mco to gnv but its ridiculous. You have to go to atlanta or something, lok.

A rental car is going to be, by far, the most cost effective way to do this. As previous posters have mentioned, chances are slim to none of a rideshare driver accepting that fare, given that they will most likely have to deadhead back without a passenger (for free). Just save yourself the headache and rent a car.

Maybe you could take a bus or something. We're talking about Gainesville FL, right?
