ScootaTrailer is a pull-behind trailer for carrying a power wheelchair or mobility scooter behind an everyday vehicle. It is built in Lexington, North Carolina by a fourth-generation custom trailer builder, and the design dates back to 2003, when a customer asked for a way to haul her electric wheelchair.
At MediDepot, the ScootaTrailer is offered as one listing with its factory options: the open trailer or the trailer with a hinged aluminum top, each with the standard rubber-coated floor or a full spray-in rubber bed liner.
Why Use ScootaTrailer?
- 600 lb carrying capacity: it carries a power chair or scooter of up to 600 lb.
- Low loading height: the floor sits 9 inches from the ground, so the chair or scooter can drive up the rear ramp under its own power.
- Light hitch load: it places 35 to 75 lb on the hitch and needs a 2-inch ball.
- Made in the USA: manufactured in North Carolina.

Who Uses ScootaTrailer?
ScootaTrailer is made for power wheelchair and mobility scooter users and their families who want to bring a chair or scooter along on trips without a lift or a converted van.
Benefits of Using ScootaTrailer
The chair or scooter rides outside the passenger space, and any vehicle with a trailer hitch can tow it, from sub-compact cars to trucks and SUVs.
Choosing the Right ScootaTrailer
Choose the open trailer for the lightest setup, or add the aluminum top for covered transport. The full spray-in rubber bed liner extends the rubber coating from the floor to the whole bed.
