WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY ABOUT US

#1
“I have never driven a minivan or used a wheelchair ramp, and I was quite timid to try. After talking to Matt on the phone the first time, I felt like I could do it! That was a couple of years ago, and I wish I had started sooner. I love driving the vans, and I feel like an “old pro”.

We rent the vans four or five times a year, and having the van delivered to the house has been such a wonderful service. The van is also picked up at the house when we’re finished. Matt, Whitney and the staff of Wheelchair Getaways always go out of their way to provide excellent customer service. The rental is painless and we feel like we are just borrowing from good neighbors.

There can be stressful times involved in helping a disabled father. Wheelchair Getaways has given me one less thing, in life, to worry about. We can always rely on Wheelchair Getaways to ensure a ‘smooth ride’ everytime.” M. S., Denver, Colorado

" Your service was excellent. I appreciate the professionalism. Thanks again." T.H., San Juan Capistrano, CA June 2005

" Thanks for renting me such a super van. I had a great time in no small part to the terrific ground transportation. I want to buy the same brand and model tie downs and hand controls that were in the van I rented. If you find the time can you pass along the make and model. The tie down clamp was substantial while remaining easy to use; the hand control had zero play so braking was immediate and predictable. I look forward to renting from you again." B.L., Maidens, VA June 2005

" Thanks for the great service. Jared was great too!" DF, San Jose, CA July 2005

#6
" I just wanted to let you know how happy I was with the van and the service we received from your company. Jared was wonderful! I tried to save having him go to the airport so early on Sunday, so my plan was to leave the van and call him with the location. Unfortunately, we couldn't figure out how to get the anti-theft light off and start the car, so I ended up calling him at 5:00 a.m. He was very pleasant and helpful. People don't realize that traveling with someone who uses a wheelchair is difficult enough without having transportation problems. Thank you so much!" C.W., Canadaigua, NY July 2005

#7
" Thanks, Matt. Everything went so smoothly for us last weekend – Jared was very helpful and punctual, and we truly appreciated the terrific door-to-door service. Certainly makes ‘disabled travelling’ much easier on all concerned!" E.T., Wayzata, MN July 2005

" Throughout the wonderful week we spent in Colorado, I kept thinking, “I must call Matt to thank him!” And thank you I do! Because of your caring and experience, we were able to get around the state easily and comfortably.

I happened to find Wheelchair Getaways on the internet, just by chance. In addition to providing me with an accessible van, you referred me to Duane Duran of A Solutions Medical for a scooter rental. I’m so happy that you were able to coordinate with Duane, so that we could pick up our van and scooter at one time. Duane was very cooperative, even coming to our hotel at the airport to exchange the scooter to make me more comfortable. You also referred me to an insurance carrier who provided collision insurance at a very reasonable rate. You certainly know what you are doing!

As I told you in our phone conversation, I was able to get to the top of the gondola ride in Steamboat Springs. Believe it or not, they have a specially built gondola, which is made to accommodate a wheelchair or scooter! In just minutes I was looking at a magnificent panorama of Colorado mountains—an experience to remember. The last place I expected to find myself was at the top of a mountain!

Thank you again, and please also express our appreciation to Jared who met us at the airport and guided us through the all the bells and whistles of the accessible van. We had such a great trip, I’m sure we’ll be back." JG, Brooklyn, NY August 2005

"It’s always a pleasure doing business with you. Your follow-through is incredible and you are so reliable. The van worked perfectly. Michael had a wonderful time, and he couldn’t have done so without renting a van from Wheelchair Getaways. Thank you for your conscientiousness. Wishing you and your family all the best," PS, Boulder, CO Sept 2005

"From Matt to Whitney to Jared you will find no weaknesses or disappointments. These nice folks deliver everything that a nervous wheelchair traveler needs to insure a worry free trip from the moment that you arrive until you head back home. They are 5 Star!" GD, Prairie Village, KS September 2005

"Thank you so much for all of your concern and assistance! We had a wonderful time in Boulder and are thankful that there are wonderful people like you, your wife, and Jarred there to assist us.

Because of our last minute evacuations due to Hurricane Rita hitting the Gulf Coast, Patrick and I were not sure how we were going to get around. But your prompt and conscientious service alleviated our worries in that area.

I will definitely recommend you to all my friends and clients, and look forward to using your services in the future! All our best," J. K. & P. B., Galveston TX, October 2005
