No Longer Need Your Wheelchair Ramp? Access Can Help

Did you know that Access Elevator, Inc. may be able to take down and remove your existing wheelchair ramp?

When a ramp is no longer needed, many homeowners are unsure of what to do with it. Wheelchair ramps can be large, heavy and difficult to safely take apart without the right equipment or experience. Access is here to make the process easier.

Depending on the ramp’s type, age and overall condition, Access may be able to disassemble and remove it for recycling. If the ramp is in good, reusable condition, we may even be able to make you an offer to purchase it.

Who Might Need a Wheelchair Ramp Removed?

There are many reasons why someone may need a ramp taken down:

  • A loved one no longer needs the ramp.
  • The homeowner has moved into assisted living or another residence.
  • You recently purchased a home with an existing ramp that you do not plan to use.
  • The ramp was installed temporarily during recovery from an injury or medical procedure.
  • The ramp is no longer the right size or configuration for the home.
  • You are preparing to sell or renovate the property.
  • The ramp is older, damaged or no longer safe to use.

Whatever the reason, our team can review the ramp and help you understand the available options.

What Can Access Do With Your Existing Ramp?

Every ramp and property is different. After reviewing the ramp, Access may be able to:

  • Professionally take apart and remove the ramp.
  • Recycle the ramp based on its material and condition.
  • Make an offer to purchase a qualifying ramp.
  • Help determine whether part of the ramp can be reused.
  • Discuss replacement ramp options if your accessibility needs have changed.

Not every ramp will qualify for purchase or reuse. Factors such as the ramp’s manufacturer, materials, age, size, condition and available components can all affect the options available. Our team will provide honest feedback after learning more about your ramp.

Looking for a Different Ramp Solution?

If you still need an accessible entrance but your current ramp no longer works for your property, Access can help you explore a variety of solutions.

We offer residential wheelchair ramps designed around the needs of the home and the person using the ramp. We can also discuss portable ramps for travel or temporary access, threshold ramps for smaller elevation changes and custom wooden wheelchair ramps for properties where a wooden design may be preferred.

Access also provides commercial wheelchair ramps for businesses, churches, schools and other public or commercial properties.

If your need is temporary, explore our accessibility equipment rentals and Milwaukee wheelchair ramp rentals. Ramp rentals may be helpful during recovery, while visiting family or when a permanent ramp is not yet needed.
