Hire intent

For portable mobility scooter hire, prepare car boot space, lift access, storage and charging details. For a heavier outdoor scooter, describe gradients, kerbs, route surface and expected daily distance.

If the plan includes rail arrival, onward travel and the exact handover point, check any separate assistance scheme first, then use the hire call to confirm product group, measurements, handover access and collection details.
