We've added Kearney, Missouri to our delivery coverage — a small Clay County town best known as the birthplace of Jesse James, with three hotels along the Platte Clay Way and I-35 corridor.
Why Kearney
The Jesse James Birthplace Museum sits right in Kearney: the preserved 1847 farmhouse where the outlaw was actually born, with the world's largest collection of James family artifacts, an introductory film on the family, and Jesse's original gravesite on the grounds. It's a genuine piece of American outlaw history, not a roadside recreation, and it draws visitors from well outside the immediate area. Kearney also sits close to Liberty — about 15 minutes south — home to the Jesse James Bank Museum, where the same family's story continues.

All three sit within a few minutes of the Jesse James Birthplace Museum and make a practical base for exploring both Kearney and nearby Liberty.
What You Can Rent
Our fleet covers the full range of mobility needs: 3-wheel and 4-wheel Pride Go-Go mobility scooters (including the heavier-duty Victory 10 for larger riders), manual wheelchairs in 16", 18", and 20" seat widths, knee scooters for post-surgical recovery, rollators and walkers, and lightweight transport chairs. Scooters rent daily with no minimum. Wheelchairs, knee scooters, rollators, and transport chairs run on a one-week minimum.
How Delivery Works
The same process we use everywhere: reserve online or by phone, and we deliver the insured mobility scooter or wheelchair to your hotel's front desk ahead of your check-in, tagged with your name and stay dates. Pick it up at check-in, no separate rental counter or paperwork required, and we handle pickup when your stay wraps up.
A Two-Stop History Trip
The Jesse James Birthplace Museum and the Jesse James Bank Museum in downtown Liberty make a natural pairing — the farmhouse where he was born and grew up, and the bank his gang is said to have robbed in the first daylight bank robbery during peacetime in American history. Both sites involve real walking across historic grounds and buildings, and a mobility scooter or wheelchair makes it possible to take in both stops in a day without the visit being cut short by fatigue.
Rounding Out Our Northland Coverage
Kearney joins Liberty, Gladstone, and Smithville as part of a broader push into the Northland this year — small towns and suburbs north of the river that see real visitor traffic but had gone uncovered. If you're headed to Kearney for the Jesse James Birthplace Museum or just passing through, and need a scooter, wheelchair, knee scooter, rollator, or transport chair waiting at your hotel, give us a call.
What the Museum Visit Actually Involves
The Jesse James Birthplace Museum tour starts at the museum building with an introductory film on the James family, then moves out onto the authentically preserved farm grounds to the actual farmhouse where Jesse was born in 1847 — real walking across real ground, not a single indoor exhibit hall. The collection includes family firearms and, notably, the boots Jesse was wearing when he was killed by Bob Ford, alongside his original gravesite on the property. It's the kind of site where covering the full grounds on foot can be a lot to ask, and where a mobility scooter or wheelchair means a visitor doesn't have to choose between the indoor exhibits and the outdoor grounds.
