Physical disabilities or mobility issues shouldn't prevent you from getting out and around. With a mobility scooter, a person can regain their freedom and independence. There are three categories of mobility scooters — travel, full-size, and heavy duty — and the knowledgeable and friendly staff at Lincoln Mobility in Lincoln, NE, can help determine which piece of equipment is right for you.

Travel Scooters

Travel scooters are the most popular category of mobility scooter. These light-weight scooters can safely accommodate up to 325 pounds with driving ranges between 8 and 15 miles per charge. Because they either fold or come apart into manageable-sized pieces, users can transport them without making expensive vehicle modifications.

Lincoln Mobility recommends the BuzzAround line of travel scooters from Golden Technologies. With several models to choose from — from the the small, portable BuzzAround Lite to the full-size, versatile BuzzAround Extreme — there's a travel scooter for almost everyone. 

Full-Size Scooters

Full-Size scooters are perfect for every-day, all-day users. These models come standard with larger batteries, extended operating ranges, and weight capacities up to 400 pounds. 

Lincoln Mobility recommends both the Victory line of full-size scooters from Pride Mobility and the Companion line of full-size scooters from Golden Technologies. Both are available in three- and four-wheel models with several optional accessories. 

Heavy-Duty Scooters

For user-weights above 350-400 pounds, heavy duty scooters are often the perfect fit. These scooters can accommodate 475-500 pounds and come standard with large, long-range batteries that make all-day use a breeze.

Lincoln Mobility recommends Patriot and Avenger heavy duty scooters from Golden Technologies.
