MobilityWorks(R) Offers Special Program Exclusively to AARP Members

Helps Members Identify Mobility Needs and Gain Access to Necessary Equipment


AKRON, OH--(Marketwired - Jul 31, 2014) - MobilityWorks®, the country's largest provider of wheelchair-accessible vans, is extending an invitation to the more than 37 million AARP members so they never miss a moment because of mobility issues. Through this special program, trained professionals from MobilityWorks will assess an individual's mobility needs then provide three attractive offers that make access to adaptive vans and equipment easier than ever.

AARP members receive $1,000 off the quoted retail price for any new or pre-owned Honda, Toyota or Dodge/Chrysler wheelchair-accessible van. On brand new, untitled van models, additional discounts also may apply, including manufacturer rebates.

In addition, AARP members are eligible for 50 percent off a wheelchair-accessible van rental. With summer travel upon us and the holidays not far behind, this is an opportunity to rent one of MobilityWorks' newer model, side-entry minivans with all the latest accessories. Members can rent a wheelchair-accessible van at any of MobilityWorks' 31 locations nationwide. Vans can accommodate most wheelchairs and mobility scooters and are available for rental by the day, week or month.

If unsure about whether or not a wheelchair-accessible van is the right choice, AARP members can take advantage of MobilityWorks' free trial program. After an initial needs assessment with one of MobilityWorks' trained Certified Mobility Consultants, MobilityWorks allows the AARP member to try the van for two days, at no cost, so they can see for themselves the true value of the purchase.

"This program supports AARP's mission to improve the lives of people as they age," says Chris Paczak, vice president of Strategic Marketing for MobilityWorks. "If as people age they come to rely on a scooter or wheelchair for mobility, that shouldn't limit their ability to do the things they want to do. MobilityWorks and AARP are teaming up to make sure AARP members have independence and personal freedom regardless of mobility issues."

The MobilityWorks program for AARP members runs from July 15, 2014 through December 31, 2014. More information is available at http://www.mobilityworks.com/aarp_special_offer.php or by contacting MobilityWorks at 1-855-364-0113.
