Why Hire Instead of Buy?
Not everyone needs to buy a mobility scooter or powerchair outright. Whether you’re recovering from surgery, waiting for a Motability application to be processed, or simply want to try before you commit to buying, our hire service offers a flexible, affordable alternative.
At NBR Mobility, we maintain a large stock of quality used mobility scooters and powerchairs, which means we can offer competitive hire rates for medium to long-term rentals. All our hire equipment is fully serviced and ready to use, with ongoing support throughout your hire period.
Who is Hire Suitable For?
Recovering from Surgery
If you’re recovering from a hip or knee replacement, or other surgery that temporarily limits your mobility, hiring a scooter for a few weeks or months can help you stay independent during recovery.
Awaiting Benefits Decision
Waiting for a PIP or DLA decision can take months. Don’t let that stop you getting out and about – hire a scooter while you wait, then switch to Motability or purchase once your benefits are confirmed.
Try Before You Buy
Not sure if a mobility scooter is right for you? Hiring lets you try one in your daily life before committing to purchase. If you decide to buy, we can often offset hire costs against your purchase.
Visiting Family
If you’re staying with relatives in Norfolk or Suffolk for an extended period and need mobility equipment, hiring locally is often more practical than transporting your own equipment.
Budget Flexibility
Spreading the cost over weekly or monthly payments can be easier on your budget than a large upfront purchase. No deposit required on most hire agreements.
Not Eligible for Motability
If you don’t receive qualifying benefits for the Motability Scheme, our hire service offers a similar all-inclusive experience with servicing and support included in your payments.
