Staying off site can uber take a portable scooter?

[pmdeve]

We plan to stay at Bonnet Creek and going to the parks. I will be renting a portable scooter. Im not sure what to do to get around, rent a car or use Uber?

I don't like renting a car at the airport . Is there a rental car location near bonnet creek?

Since ill have the portable scooter can i use Uber. Will they be able to fit my scooter

I appreciate suggestions. Thank you.

FYI you might want to change the title of your thread, as I think you meant to say "portable scooter" not "portable SUV."

There is a car rental office on property, the Car Care Center (and also one at Swan and Dolphin). If you get a larger Uber you might be able to fit a portable scooter in the trunk if it's an SUV or something similar.

The ECV should fit in an Uber XL. I would be prepared to be able to quickly disassemble it and load it to (and unload it from) the vehicle without assistance. This can involve lifting 50 pounds.

Thank you for the information. The rental car would make life a lot easier. Do you know which rental car agencies are there? Can I reserve ahead of time like I would do if I were picking it up at the airport?

Also thanks for the heads up on my title. I tried to make the correction but it did not take. Ill keep trying.

Thanks We are able to break it down and load it quickly.

It's the Enterprise 'family.' National and Enterprise for sure, I think also Alamo. Yes, you can absolutely reserve ahead of time just like any other car rental office, I've done it several times. If you're staying on property, they also have a shuttle that will pick you up at any of the resorts and take you to the Car Care Center (you do have to call to arrange that).

The title appears changed to me, so it looks like it worked!

There are also some car rentals at Disney Springs hotels.

I don't see anything at the link you provided that indicates car rentals at Disney Springs hotels . . .

That's probably because the link is an official Disney link. Disney wouldn't advertise car rental places for non-Disney hotels at Disney Springs.

Here's a link from MouseSavers with helpful information: https://www.mousesavers.com/how-to-rent-a-car-at-walt-disney-world/

Why wouldn't you simply pick up the car at the airport? That way you don't have to pay for transportation to Bonnet Creek.

If you have a disabled parking hangtag and bring it, you can use it in your rented car.

Don’t forget to take it with you at the end of your trip!

Ah, I get it now. I originally thought the comment PP made about car rentals at Disney Spring was explaining the link up above. I'm guessing I misinterpreted and the link and the comment were meant to be two separate things.

In addition to what's listed on the MouseSavers page linked to, Enterprise also has a presence at Car Care Center. And National has a location at Swan and Dolphin.

No the link was the Disney Care Center Rentals.

Then I just said some of the Disney Springs hotels offer it but you would have to go to each hotel to find out if they offer and what their offering is.

Thanks for clarifying. As I explained in response to another poster, I initially assumed that the link you posted and the comment were related (that the comment was explaining the link). I then realized they were two independent thoughts.
