At Mobility Giant, we offer a hassle-free way to buy or hire a high-quality scooter - without the stress of hidden fees, complicated processes or sky-high costs. 

Here’s why choosing Mobility Giant can be the easiest decision you’ll make:

How to save money when buying a mobility scooter

Buying a mobility scooter outright can often be a costly purchase. Fortunately, there are a few ways you can save money without compromising on quality or functionality. Here's how:

Choose approved used scooters.

Buying an approved used mobility scooter is one of the smartest ways to save money whilst still getting a top-quality product. At Mobility Giant, you can access premium-brand scooters at a fraction of the price of buying new - without ever compromising on reliability or performance. If you're on a budget, a refurbished scooter that’s been restored to showroom standard, using our 100-point inspection method, is a cost-effective, high-quality alternative to buying brand-new. 

Regular scooter maintenance.

Once you've invested in a mobility scooter, you can avoid further costs by showing it some TLC. Proper maintenance is essential to ensure your scooter remains in excellent working condition and helps you avoid costly repairs down the line. Regularly checking tyres, properly charging batteries and keeping your scooter clean can prevent wear and tear and significantly extend the life of your scooter. 

Hire a scooter with us.

If you’re not ready to commit to owning your mobility scooter long-term, choosing to hire one instead is a clever, a affordable alternative. With our scooter hire service you get everything you need – from the scooter to maintenance and support – for a low monthly cost. This is a great solution for those who may only need a scooter short-term, or who want to test out different models before making a purchase.
