Delivery & set-up in Sheffield

We deliver throughout Sheffield and South Yorkshire, covering postcodes S1–S36 plus nearby Rotherham, Barnsley, Chesterfield, Doncaster and Dronfield. Equipment can go to your home, a care or residential home, a hotel or holiday let — or arrive to coincide with a hospital discharge from Northern General Hospital and Royal Hallamshire Hospital. How it arrives depends on the item: most wheelchairs and folding scooters are sent by independent courier in a custom box (please keep the box for collection), while items that need correct sizing or set-up are delivered, assembled and demonstrated by our own engineers. You can see the method on each product’s Delivery tab, or request an engineer delivery. At the end of hire we arrange collection — the hire concludes two working days after you give notice.

Our call centre and service managers can answer product, technical and specification questions on 0800 111 6234 (24/7) — though we can’t recommend a specific product for your circumstances. Courier orders placed early in the day are usually delivered the next working day in Sheffield.
