Lifting TravelScoot

[mamaofami]

My husband can no longer lift the TravelScoot into the car. Mine is a junior and weighs 23 lbs with the battery,back and seat off. Down to 20 lbs. if we take off the front wheel. Any suggestions on how to do this? I can't lift it either.:(

I don’t know what kind of car you have, but there are dealers that handle this kind of problem, namely mobility scooter dealers, the dealer you bought your TravelScoot from should be able to help you !:rolleyes:

 

Otherwise “Google” “mobility scooter lifts for cars” like the one below :confused::D

My friend has a Chrysler minivan and she took out one of the back seats...she just lifts the wheel of the TS onto the floor and kind of rolls it up into the van. Similar to this... http://mytravelscoot.blogspot.com/2010/07/loading-fully-assembled-travelscoot-in.html

I don't know if this would be an option for your vehicle.

Thank you everyone. I didn't know they made these lifts. I don't have a mini van and we usually take the seat and back off and put it into the trunk or back seat. I will have to look into the first post and see what we can do. I guess I should also ask Tony at Travelscoot.

"Bruno Scooter Lifts" have many different models. :confused: ;)

 

I have a "Curb Side VSL 6900" myself, and it takes me a total of 5 minutes to unload and load again. :D

 

Enjoy

DH has been cleared to lift 20 lbs. I have a travelscoot junior and according to Tony, it weighs 21 lbs with the seat, back, and front wheel off so we're good to go.
