Frequently Asked Questions
Are the scooters in good condition?
Each "U Krooze" rental station and its vehicles are carefully maintained to ensure they are clean, fully charged, and safe for use. Our technicians are readily available to address any mechanical issues or replace a unit in the event a customer experiences difficulty.
Is this mobility scooter rental the same as a medical scooter or ECV rental, and where can I use it?
Yes, the terms "mobility scooter," "medical scooter," and "ECV" all refer to single-rider, 3-wheel or 4-wheel electric conveyance vehicles designed for individuals with mobility needs. These vehicles are classified as Class 2 Medical Devices under the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act), which mandates accessibility requirements for businesses. As such, these scooters do not require special licensing and can be used in most public venues, including sidewalks, malls, shopping centers, stores, museums, theme parks, fairs, concerts, and movie theaters, subject to the manufacturer's approved riding conditions. Unlike golf carts, these scooters are legally allowed to be operated in such spaces.
How do I pay for the equipment rental?
U Krooze accepts all major credit cards, including Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover. Simply download the U Krooze app, create an account, scan your scooter, and begin your ride.
I am heavier than average. Will the equipment be suitable for my needs?
Yes, U Krooze vehicles are designed to accommodate riders up to 350 lbs in weight.
