Can anyone recommend a local Orlando vendor that rents the motorized scooters. My SIL just had ankle surgery and we hope to be able to still go on our trip in June

I have used Apple scooter before. I had no problems with them. There are several others as well like Walker. Make sure which ever you use delivers to the resort. Some are contracted and some are not and you need to be present for the drop off and pick up. For the non contracted rentals the good thing about that is they can show you how the scooter works.

We used Best Price Mobility for my aunt. They are authorized by Disney for direct drop off to the resort. The scooter she received was in very good condition. 2008 we rented 2 scooters from Walker, those scooters were not in the best of shape.

We are fans of Buena Vista Scooters. Good service and the scooter was in good shape.

I know I'm the exception, but we've rented from Apple twice, and neither time was great, with one being down right horrible!

I agree though - make sure you rent from an "Disney Authorized Provider", so you don't have to arrange for an in-person drop-off and pick up. The list can be found here.

We've only used Apple and had great experiences but I've heard good things about Buena Vista, too.

Wow. The list has changed greatly in the past 2 years. Note to self: Check current listings before making a reservation and again right before we go.
