Will have 2 scooters

[DisneyBoundMomof3]

On our next upcoming trip, hubby and I will both need scooters, any experiences having to have 2 scooters with your party or can we have them at the front desk area? I had one our last trip and it was fine, this will be his first experience with one.

Are you asking if you can have two ECVs delivered to the front desk (yes, if they are from a preferred vendor) or if you can leave them there at night? I would think leaving them there would depend on the resort, and if there was space for them. Also, if you needed them charged overnight, there may not be outlets available, as they would need the outlets for cleaning services. I'd also be concerned that something would happen to the ECVs.

There is room inside your room (even value resorts) for 2 ECV. You might need to move furniture a bit to fit them in.

My mother and I each had an ECV on our trip last week. Both fit in the room just fine (POFQ, fyi) and we had no issues with buses or the parks either.

I do have a question for anyone else here who might be able to help! Next trip it will be DH and I with an ECV each, and we will be using the boats several times (Sassagoula River Cruise to Disney Springs and Riverside) as well as the Friendship Boats from HS to Beach Club.

My question is, will there be any problem on these boats for us to both bring our ECV? I am thinking I read somewhere a while back that like the buses, 2 is usually the limit, and I wouldn't mind if we had to wait for another boat as long as we were together, but I thought I might ask again.

2 ECVs does take a little more thought and planning for sure!

It's no big deal. Just show up with both scooters and they will load you both, assuming there is space. We had one trip with two scooters and only had to wait on a second but one time, in the entire week. We park hop all over the place, so extensively use transportation and was never an issue. There is really no way to advance plan anything, since you don't know who will be waiting at the same time as you. Just relax and take it as it goes. Everything will be fine. Disney will take good care of you.

Yep - the boats to/from Disney Springs can easily accommodate two ECVs, and we have seen three on the Friendships between Epcot and HS.

And @DisneyBoundMomof3 - just go to the Front Desk (don't call from the room - go down to the Front Desk in person; room phones go to a Call Center not at the Resort) and tell Front Desk staff that you need the table and chairs removed from the room, and explain why. Typically not an issue at all. Have fun!

For those of you with 2 scooters, how often did you encounter a bus that couldn't take you both, so you had to wait for the next bus?

On last trip in March, none.
On trip last October, 1-2 times at park closing (over the course of 8 days)

Once. First week of February this year.

And actually that was only because we voluntarily asked the family behind us to go first and we would wait on another bus. They had a child in a wheelchair, along with older grandparents, who looked exhausted, on foot. The bus that came only held two, although most of them we saw that week could accommodate three.

My sister and I were a two-ECV party once, and the only difficulty we ever had is that sometimes we couldn't get up next to each other to hear each other in traffic.

Whichever one needed to get the other's attention would pull over and call the other's cell. It was easier when the person in the lead it was the one who wanted attention, because they could just signal a stop. Anyway, it didn't happen that often.

Even easier - call Housekeeping. That kind does go to the facility at the appropriate resort.
