Mobility transport
Can I ask why in 2018 mobility taxis services are still unable to transport mobility scooters
I am acting chairman of DPA Northland, I have raised the issue with WDC and intend to pursue this large gap in the market, companies like total mobility are not to blame. Government and council planners are, WDC had agreed to listen which is a good start, mobility scooter use is increasing they already outnumber wheelchairs, I believe that within 5 years there will be four mobility scooters for every wheelchair, that is potentially 80% of the market you could be missing out on, in most cases the mobility scooter rider would be able to go into the passenger seat so only the scooter would be required to fit in the transport provided. As a business, I think you should think hard about the points I have brought to your attention.
At this time December 2018 in Whangarei to my knowledge, there is no available transport options for mobility scooter users, providers tell me it is in the too hard basket. Consider this If I wanted to get a mobility scooter serviced or indeed buy one, the people that sell and service these have no problems at all transporting them, so it can be done
