Our Selection of Transport Wheelchairs

Lightweight Transport Wheelchairs & Companion Chairs

Looking for a lightweight wheelchair at a great price? We have a solid option: lightweight transport wheelchairs. Utilizing smaller wheels and lightweight materials, these wheelchairs can weight as little as 15 lbs. And, starting at under $100, transport wheelchairs offer mobility at a very affordable price.

A transport wheelchair or folding transport chair is a wheelchair that is defined by its four small wheels - it does not have the traditional large 24”  rear wheels that most wheelchairs have.

The transport chair was designed exclusively to transport people in a wheelchair for short trips to the Dr,  restaurant, and traveling on a trip. Note: when sitting in a transport chair the person sitting in the chair cannot self propel in the chair,  they will always need to be pushed by a cargiver. Because a transport wheelchair does not have large rear wheels it is much lighter than a traditional wheelchair making it super easy to lift into a car.

Another great feature of the folding transport wheelchair is that in addition to the chair collapsing and folding,  most transport chairs’ back folds down thus creating a super small and tight footprint when storing the chair in a car or a closet.   

Here are some things to consider when buying a folding transport wheelchair

• Chair Weight - the lighter the chair teh easier it is to lift and to push - we recommend a transport chair that weighs under 20 lbs.
• Comfort - some transport wheelchairs have ergonomic seating and back for extra comfort and posture

The Medline ultra light 14.8 lbs transport chair is our lightest transport chair.

The Strongback ergonomic transport chair is our most comfortable transport folding chair.

Note: all transport wheelchair fold into any car trunk or closet.
