Hi,
I was wondering how quickly the rental ecv's at Magic Kingdom get rented at MVMCP. Thank you for any and all help.

Good luck. You have to assume all of the ECV will be rented during the day. They have to be recharged before they can be rented..guests with hoppers and APs may enter the park earlier then MVMCP guests.

The question isn't running out. The question how many, if any, will be available.

Rent outside unless you can settle for a wheelchair

Absolutely, if you can get one from outside the park, do that. They are better maintained, move faster and are way, way cheaper. I rented one once direct from Disney at MK and at one point while enroute to the castle I looked down and saw a snail pass me. Very frustrating when it won't keep up with slowly walking people.

Does anyone have experience renting a scooter on a party night? I do not rent them outside because I do not want to deal with them on the buses, so I will be hoping to get one when I come into the park also. When I saw this wonderful question, I was hoping that someone with experience would have answered it. Thanks.

Thanks so much for the help. I decided after a very long sleepless night that I'm going to rent one from an outside vendor. It will only be for the party. I have to look at more to see if any are cheaper than the one I looked at. Thanks again.

Pre-orders and deliveries of mobility rentals through ScooterBug to Disney Resort hotels are available by visiting scooterbug.com/orlando or calling (800) 726-8284. They deliver to any Disney resort. There are other options but you must meet the delivery, and again for the pickup.

When Disney Resort hotel Guests choose to rent through ScooterBug, the Guest does not need to be present when the equipment is delivered to the Resort hotel. ScooterBug will work with Disney Resort Cast Members to manage deliveries and returns of rented ECVs and wheelchairs

The speed is adjustable on most ECV's, including the ones at Disney. They turn them down to the low setting so renters not used to them don't wind up running someone over right away. Their full speed is faster than my brisk walking pace.
