Hello, In this video we are looking at how much stair lift rentals cost.
Many people who either have temporary mobility issues or cannot meet the upfront costs of purchasing a stairlift outright look into rental stairlifts as a solution.
Stairlift rental is when you pay a service to temporarily install a stair lift onto your staircase. There will be a rental charge every month for as long as the use of this stairlift is required.
Many customers wonder whether renting or buying a stairlift is going to work out cheaper overall, given their circumstances. For those with only short-term mobility needs, a rental stairlift with only temporary installation might make a lot of financial sense.
If you require a stairlift because you are having difficulty using your staircase while you recover from an illness or a procedure, you will likely find a stairlift rental scheme a more cost-effective idea. By paying for a monthly rental or paying per week of use, you can discontinue your rental once you no longer need the stairlift.
Using a stairlift rental service is also a great option if a family member or guest with reduced mobility will be coming to stay with you for a short period of time; however, if the guest is visiting for a very short period, it may not make financial sense to rent a stairlift, as the installation charge is often expensive in itself, and even if the company covers this, they may be reluctant to provide a rental stairlift for a very short time.
The minimum monthly rental duration of many stairlifts rental services is often 1 month or more.
In the longer term, moreover, the rental premium for using an installed stairlift will add up and may end up being more expensive than if you had chosen to simply buy a new or used stairlift outright.
In cases where you will need a stairlift for a period of years, it is likely best to purchase a new or used stairlift, as long as you have the financial resources to achieve this. In this case, you will have to pay for some additional servicing to your stairlift over the years, which is normally included in the rental cost.
While not everyone will be able to get a stairlift for free, you can apply for a government grant- the Disabled Facilities Grant- which could cover all or part of your stairlift bills, as well as funding assistance from a number of charitable organisations.
If you call a stairlift rental company, their customer service team will be able to answer any questions you have about the cost of their rental stairlift options.
Many stairlift rental services, especially from major UK stairlift providers, will offer free cover for any maintenance or servicing required during the rental period. This is a great way to ensure a problem-free customer experience while renting a stairlift, as instead of worrying about having to make a big payment should your stairlift fail, the provider will cover any problems (subject to terms and conditions).
