It started with a flight of stairs
We spent hours on the phone. Company after company could send a wheelchair-accessible vehicle. Not one of them would handle the stairs. Most said it plainly — we don’t offer that.
Missing the appointment wasn’t an option, so we found a way. But those hours stayed with me. There were plenty of companies that could move a wheelchair. There were almost none that could safely get a person down a staircase when there was no elevator.
That gap is why this company exists. Since 2018 we’ve built NYC Wheelchair Transportation around the part everyone else skips: trained people who can help someone up and down stairs with patience, skill, and dignity — so they can get to the appointment, get home from the hospital, or simply leave the house without it becoming an ordeal.

What We Wont Do
We won’t take a booking we can’t properly staff. If a trip needs two people, it gets two people, or we tell you we can’t do it.
We won’t leave someone at the curb.
We are a Non-Emergency Service
What we do is everything around the emergency: getting to dialysis three times a week, home from a hospital discharge, to the specialist across the borough, to the airport, to a funeral, to a family celebration.
Where we go
Dialysis and chemotherapy appointments. Hospital and rehab discharges. Doctor visits. JFK, LaGuardia and Newark. The Manhattan Cruise Terminal. Funerals and cemetery visits. Weddings, birthdays, and the days that matter.

The difference is what happens outside the vehicle
-
Stairs are not an exception here. Our Two-Men Assist service handles walk-ups, brownstone stoops, narrow staircases and buildings with no elevator. It's not a special request. It's the thing we were built to do, and it doesn't change the price of an ambulette.
-
Door-through-door, not curb-to-curb. Our drivers come inside. We start at the bed or the front door and finish at the bed or the front door on the other end.
-
Private-pay means no gatekeepers. No insurance paperwork, no broker approvals, no pre-authorization, no waiting for someone else to say yes. Same-day, after-hours, weekends and holidays.
-
Response standards we'll state out loud. Wheelchair taxi pickup in about 15 minutes anywhere in the five boroughs. Ambulette and bed-to-bed service typically at the door within the hour.
-
The right vehicle for the person. Wheelchair taxi, ambulette, and private ambulance — three levels of service, so nobody gets sent a vehicle that can't do the job.
