Most people don't realize how vast Bartle Hall really is until they're standing in the middle of it on day two, calculating whether the keynote across the building is worth the walk. It shouldn't come down to that math. When the scooter is charged and waiting at your downtown hotel the morning your convention opens, the only decisions left are which sessions to catch and where to grab dinner after. Reserve in about two minutes.
The short answer: If you're attending a convention at the Kansas City Convention Center (Bartle Hall), the easiest way to get a mobility scooter is to rent from a local KC provider and have it delivered to your downtown hotel — ready the morning your event starts. We're based here in the metro, we own our fleet, and we deliver it ourselves, often same day when you order by 2pm. Reserve in about two minutes.
Why a scooter makes a multi-day convention doable
Bartle Hall's exhibit floors span hundreds of thousands of square feet, and a typical convention day means walking it several times over — plus the hotel, the restaurants, and the Power & Light District at night. By day two, that distance is what wears attendees down. A mobility scooter or wheelchair turns "I have to pace myself and skip sessions" into "I can do the whole show, every day." Our scooters carry a full convention day on a charge, and we'll size the model to your weight and the distances you're covering. See the full equipment catalog.
How delivery works for convention attendees
- Pick your dates for the length of the convention (arrive-day through departure).
- We deliver to your hotel — left with the bell desk under your reservation name, so it's waiting when you check in.
- Same-day available when you order by 2pm CT.
- We pick it up from the same hotel when your trip ends.
We deliver to 40+ Kansas City hotels, including the downtown and Crown Center properties closest to the Convention Center. See hotel delivery.
Scooter or wheelchair — which fits your convention?
- Mobility scooter — best if you'll cover long distances independently across the show floor and downtown. Choose a 3-wheel for tight indoor turning, a 4-wheel for outdoor stability. Compare scooters.
- Manual wheelchair — best if a companion is with you, or you need it only for the longer stretches. Available in seat widths from 16 inches up to a 24-inch bariatric (500 lb) chair. Compare wheelchairs.

Exhibiting or bringing a group?
If your company is exhibiting, or you're coordinating accessibility for a team or attendees, we handle convention and conference rentals — multiple units, delivered together, billed to one account. See Conventions & Conferences rentals.
Why local matters for a convention rental
National booking sites subcontract delivery to whoever's available in each city. We're not a marketplace — we're a Kansas City company that owns the equipment and delivers it ourselves. If something comes up mid-convention, you're calling the people who actually have your scooter, not a national call center. That's the difference when you're three days into a show and can't afford a hiccup.
