Used Wheelchair-Accessible Vans

For the 1.6 million Americans outside of institutions who use mobility devices, wheelchair vans can make the daily tasks of life, like grocery shopping or picking up kids, easier and safer.

Layout Options Available in Wheelchair Vans

There are more than a dozen seating configurations available with rear- and side-entry conversion options. For vehicles that need to transport two mobility passengers at the same time, a rear-entry conversion with removable back bench may be the best option. Side-entry conversions allow the mobility passenger to ride in the center or the front passenger bay. With additional modifications, a side-entry model can also be converted for use by a driver in a wheelchair.

Handicap accessible vans are also a good investment for commercial and paratransit use. In fact, some organizations require that transportation services provide an alternative for those who use wheelchairs. Rear-entry models do not require additional space to load and unload passengers. Side-entry vehicles may require additional space, such as that found in handicap parking spaces. Some areas require side-entry models to be used by commercial and paratransit vans. This is also a good choice for shuttles that regularly transport passengers and their luggage. A rear-entry model is more durable, however, and may be the best option for places that don't require side entry.
