Inside the Mobility Co showroom in Cheltenham, Melbourne, showing adjustable beds, lift recliner chairs, mobility scooters and power wheelchairs

Most mobility equipment online is sold sight unseen, shipped in a box, and left at the door. That’s fine for a flag or a rain cover. It’s a harder way to choose a lift chair, an adjustable bed, or a scooter you’ll use every day.

Mobility Co’s real value isn’t any single feature. It’s the whole experience from first enquiry to long after delivery, and the support that keeps going once the equipment is in the home. The pricing is competitive, but that’s not the part people remember. Here’s how it works, and how it differs from buying online.

Inside our Cheltenham showroom, set up to feel like home rather than a clinic.
What matters when you buy Mobility Co (Cheltenham showroom, Melbourne) Buying online, sight unseen
The whole experience, start to finish One team from first enquiry through trial, delivery, installation and ongoing support, so you’re guided the whole way and not left alone afterwards. The transaction tends to end once the box arrives.
Try before you decide Come in and properly try the main range: sit in the chair, test the bed, feel the difference. Appointments and walk-ins are never rushed and have no time limit. Usually not possible. You judge from photos and specs.
A space that feels like home A warm, deliberately non-clinical showroom set up like a home, so solutions suit the home rather than feeling like a hospital. Not applicable.
Expert advice Led by a specialist with around 8 years in assistive technology; honest guidance, and if a product isn’t right for you they’ll gladly point you elsewhere. Usually a call centre or email, if anyone.
A carefully chosen range A curated range of quality products to see and try, with access to thousands more if something specific is needed. Long lists, little help working out what’s right.
Free in-home trial Free, obligation-free in-home trials on the main range: lift chairs, scooters, power wheelchairs, adjustable beds and mattresses. Rare. Returns are the usual fallback.
Delivery and installation Delivered and installed across metropolitan Victoria, with a focus on Melbourne’s Bayside, East, South East and the Mornington Peninsula. Flat-packed to your door. Assembly is yours.
Making room, and the old item Furniture moved within the home to make space, free of charge. Removal of an old bed or recliner available for a fee. Not offered.
Occupational therapist support OT-informed advice, products set up for the person, and material explaining a product’s clinical benefit. The team also hosts CPD events, often run by OTs. Generally none.
Funding help Works with Support at Home (formerly Home Care Packages) and NDIS; NDIS registered and registered with dozens of Support at Home providers; compliant quotes usually within 24 hours, with product codes and specifications. Typically a plain invoice. Funding is left to you.
After you buy Warranty issues typically resolved by replacing the item, so little downtime; servicing and support on everything Mobility Co has sold. Online support, often interstate or overseas.
Scooters chosen for stability A focus on four-wheel scooters for everyday stability and confidence. Three-wheel models widely sold online on price.
A dedicated therapist space A space upstairs for visiting therapists: somewhere to stop between clients, make a coffee, or use a hot desk with wifi and a monitor. Not applicable.
Australian, family owned Yes. Varies, and often not.

What our customers say

Common questions

Is it better to try a mobility scooter or lift chair in person before buying?

For something you’ll use every day, yes. A lift chair, adjustable bed or scooter needs to suit your body, your home and how you move. At the Mobility Co showroom in Cheltenham you can try the main range properly, with no time limit, and get honest advice from a specialist. If you can’t get in, free obligation-free in-home trials are available on the main range: lift chairs, scooters, power wheelchairs, adjustable beds and mattresses.

What makes Mobility Co different from buying online?

The whole experience, start to finish. One team guides you from the first enquiry through trying the product, delivery and installation, and keeps supporting you long after. Pricing is competitive, but the lasting value is in the service, the honest advice, and knowing someone is there if you need them later.

Does Mobility Co deliver and install, and where?

Yes. Mobility Co delivers and installs across metropolitan Victoria, with a focus on Melbourne’s Bayside, East, South East and the Mornington Peninsula. The team can also move furniture within the home to make space at no charge, and remove an old bed or recliner for a fee.

How quickly can I get a quote from Mobility Co?

Compliant quotes are usually provided within 24 hours, with the product codes and specifications a funding plan or therapist needs.

Can Mobility Co help with NDIS or Support at Home funding?

Yes. Mobility Co works with Support at Home (formerly Home Care Packages) and NDIS. It is NDIS registered and registered with dozens of Support at Home providers, understands the funding guidelines, and can provide compliant quotes with product codes and specifications, plus material explaining a product’s clinical benefit for therapists and clients.

What happens if something goes wrong after I buy from Mobility Co?

Mobility Co offers after-sales support on everything it sells. Warranty issues are typically handled by replacing the product so there’s minimal delay, and servicing and support are available on products bought from Mobility Co.

Why does Mobility Co focus on four-wheel mobility scooters?

Four wheels give better everyday stability and confidence than three-wheel models, which is why Mobility Co focuses on them.

Does Mobility Co work with occupational therapists?

Yes. Therapists are welcome to bring clients in to trial products with no time pressure, ask ahead for specific products to be set up, and use a dedicated space upstairs between visits.
