Curb-Sider Power-Chair Vehicle Lift

The Curb-Sider Power-Chair Vehicle Lift is designed to raise, rotate, then stow one’s scooter or power-chair into the bed of a pickup truck or back of a van, hoisting it up from either behind, the rear corner, or side of the vehicle. The device, which operates off the vehicle’s battery, reportedly provides 250 or 400 pounds of lifting capacity, depending on model. It can be installed on either the passenger or driver’s side, requires no structural modifications to the vehicle, comes with custom chair-docking hardware, and (in a full-size van) its fold-down lift head allows for driver rearward visibility and partial third-row seating access or cargo space.

Cost: $3,000.00
