Guest guest Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 I have ordered stuff through this site before and like these people: http://www.allegromedical.com/wheelchairs-c540.html?searchPhrase=transport+wheel\ chair & sortOrder=4 that page has transport chairs on them.... Another idea is to check your local craigslist.. often people sell them under wheelchairs for very cheap. Your local medical supply stores should have them as well and even places like the price club do too...
