Long Term Hire
We understand that sometimes you may need mobility equipment for an extended period or for use beyond the city centre. That’s why we offer a range of accessible solutions, including wheelchairs, portable mobility scooters and walkers, all available for hire – whether for a day, a week, or longer.
To ensure we provide you with the right equipment tailored to your needs, we kindly ask that you contact us via phone or email to make your reservation as early as possible. This allows us to prepare the equipment and have it ready for you upon your arrival.
Scooters
For long-term rentals, we offer the Go Go Elite Traveller Sport scooters – a fleet of compact, versatile mobility scooters designed for easy use and portability. Smaller and more lightweight than some of our larger Shopmobility models, these scooters have a weight capacity of up to 23 st 3 lbs (147 kg).
Known for their portability, the Go Go (or “boot scooter”) can be disassembled and easily fit into the boot of a standard car, making it the perfect choice for holidays or exploring the city with greater freedom and flexibility. Please be aware that these scooters are not suitable for more difficult terrain, if you are unsure please get in touch with us and we can advise.
As our boot scooters are in high demand, particularly during school holidays and the summer months, we highly recommend booking in advance to ensure availability.
Refundable Deposit – £50.00
Day Hire – £17.00

On booking we will take a £5.00 non-refundable booking fee over the phone, this will be deducted from the overall cost of your hire when you collect your equipment.
All equipment can be collected from our Shopmobility office in the Mayflower East car park. This is open Monday-Friday, 09:15 – 16:00.
Please note, all equipment rentals require a refundable deposit, which can be paid at the time of collection, for ease of return to you we request that this be paid in cash.
While we encourage you to make use of our equipment for local adventures and travel within the UK, please be aware we are not able to provide equipment for use in other countries.
Let us help make your experience as smooth and comfortable as possible!
