Mobility Equipment Rentals Near You in New Jersey
Making your home accessible is important, but not every situation calls for a permanent installation. Whether you’re recovering from surgery, caring for a family member, have guests with limited mobility, or figuring out what you need long-term, renting mobility equipment is a smart choice.
Williams Lift Company has been helping New Jersey families stay safe and independent at home since 1947. We offer rentals for stair lifts, wheelchair ramps, and lift chairs with professional delivery, set-up, and removal, so you don’t have to handle all the details on your own.

- Delivery, setup, and removal are included.
Mobility Equipment Rental Options
At Williams Lift Company, we offer three types of rental equipment to cover the most common home accessibility needs. They include:
Stair Lift Rentals
A stair lift lets someone move safely between floors without assistance, which is a big deal for both the person using it and their caregiver. We can install our rental stair lifts on straight staircases to help reduce your risk of accidental slips and falls. They are a great option for post-surgery recoveries or extended visits from a family member with limited mobility. We offer stair lifts from leading brands, including:
Our technicians handle the full installation, and we remove it when you’re done.
Wheelchair Ramp Rentals
Wheelchair ramps make it easier for those using a walker or wheelchair to enter and exit your home. We rent three types of aluminum wheelchair ramps that help you and your loved ones stay safe, including:
- Modular ramps: These install quickly, require no permanent modifications to your home, and can be configured to fit most entry points.
- Threshold ramps: These smaller ramps can be used inside or out to help eliminate the gap between the lip of a doorframe and a small landing.
- Portable ramps: Our foldable suitcase ramps make it easy for you to take them with you if you’re attending an event.
Our technicians will measure your entryway and configure the right setup during our on-site assessment.
Lift Chair Rentals
A lift chair, or power lift recliner, gently tilts forward to help you stand up safely from a seated position. This is helpful after hip or knee surgery or for anyone who struggles to rise from a regular chair. We deliver the chair, set it up in your living space, and pick it up when you’re done.
Rent vs. Buy Decision Guide
Deciding if you should rent or buy mobility equipment depends on how long you need the equipment and whether your needs are likely to change.
Renting makes sense if:
- You need equipment for a set recovery period (e.g., 1-6 months).
- You’re not sure yet how long you’ll need it.
- You want to try it before committing to a purchase.
- A family member is visiting and needs help while staying with you.
If you need long-term equipment or have a progressive condition, you need a permanent solution. Buying might be a more cost-effective option.
What’s Included with My Mobility Equipment Rental?
Before you buy or rent mobility equipment, look for what’s included. Some providers charge separately for delivery, installation, removal, and any service calls. At Williams Lift Company, those are all part of our rental agreements. If something stops working during your rental period, call us. After we install your ramp, stair lift, or lift chair, we’ll walk you and your family through how to use the equipment safely. Additionally, when your rental ends, we’ll come back and remove the equipment, leaving your home exactly as we found it.
What Are Your Timelines and Availability?
We serve customers throughout New Jersey, and we can schedule most rentals within a few business days. While we can set up ramps and lift chair rentals within an hour, stair lift installations take a bit longer. Our technicians need to measure and configure the unit to fit your staircase.
To speed things along, have the following ready when you call:
- The type of equipment you need
- Your address and whether you’re in a house, condo, or apartment
- The number of steps or the height of your entry
- How long you expect to need the equipment
If you’re not sure what you need, that’s fine, too. We offer free in-home assessments. One of our specialists will visit, take measurements, and walk you through the best options for your home and situation.

Most modular ramp installations take a few hours. Our technicians will arrive with the equipment, assemble it on-site, and make sure everything is level and secure before leaving.
