A friend of mine from pulmonary rehab found a rolling cart that worked for her

at STAPLES. I know it's not medical equipment but she was able to make it work

for her. If all else fail you could try there.

Your oxygen provider should get you a cart upon request. The maker of

the Companion 1000 does have carts. Online, cpapusa.com has them I

believe.

But many have gotten different kinds of carts or strollers such as those

from office supply stores, or Pink Joyce uses a baby stroller, or

luggage type carts. If you get a cart that can do more than just carry

the Companion1000 then it can serve multiple purposes. For instance,

carry the oxygen unit and other items you want to take with you or even

small items you find to buy while shopping.

Hi folks: I have a Companion T1000 portable oxygen system. I am trying to find a cart that it will fit on to wheel around. It’s pretty heavy when full.

I’ve been on the internet, but haven’t come across anything. I am thinking of asking my oxygen supplier if I could get another one –would make my life easier. Depending on activity, I am on 6-10 liters. Do you know where I could purchase one of those?

Thanks for your help.

The milk crate type thingy you can get from office max or staples for about 30

dollars I think. We use them to carry all our audit stuff around since audit

bags cost like 100 dollars
