Book Your RideA Ride Where You Stay in Your Wheelchair
Waypoint Medical Transport provides private-pay wheelchair transportation in Greenville, NC and across Eastern North Carolina. You may hear it called a wheelchair van, wheelchair taxi, or handicap transportation. It means the same thing: the rider boards by ramp or lift and stays seated in their own wheelchair for the whole ride.
The driver comes to the door, helps the rider out to the van, secures the wheelchair with four-point tie-downs and a seatbelt, and walks the rider in at the other end. A family member or caregiver rides along at no extra charge.
Wheelchair rides within Greenville start at $95 one way. Longer trips are priced by distance, and we confirm your full price before you book. Call or text (252) 275-7700, 8am to 5pm, seven days a week.
