*Wheelchair Pricing: If you provide your own Broda chair, standard wheelchair rates apply. Likewise, if TLC Rides provides a standard reclining wheelchair, you will be charged the regular wheelchair rate—not the Broda chair rate.

Why TLC Rides

More than just a ride

Getting to an appointment is simple for most people. It's a different story when a passenger uses a wheelchair, a reclining mobility chair, or simply needs a steady arm and a few extra minutes. TLC Rides exists to make that part easier.

When you arrange transportation with us, you aren't just booking a vehicle. You're trusting us with a family member, a resident, a patient, or someone you care about — and we treat every ride that way.

  • Personal attention on every ride, not a dispatch queue
  • Comfortable, unhurried transportation
  • Accommodations for wheelchairs and specialized mobility seating
  • Scheduling you can plan around, including return trips
  • A local company — real people answer your questions

Services

Accessible transportation, arranged around the passenger

Every trip is planned around how the passenger travels — the equipment they use, the assistance they need, and the schedule they have to keep.

  • Wheelchair Transportation

    Ramp-equipped transportation for passengers using manual or powered wheelchairs and other mobility devices.

  • Specialized Seating Transportation

    Room and securement for certain reclining mobility chairs, including Broda-style and tilt-in-space seating.

  • Medical Appointments

    Dependable rides to and from appointments, therapy, dialysis, and follow-up visits — with a return trip you can count on.

  • Senior Transportation

    Patient, unhurried transportation for seniors who need more assistance than a standard rideshare can offer.

  • Facility Transportation

    Scheduled and recurring transportation for assisted living communities, nursing and rehabilitation facilities, and healthcare organizations.

  • Personal Transportation

    Everyday destinations — family gatherings, errands, worship, a haircut — anywhere accessible transportation is needed.

TLC Rides provides transportation and assistance getting safely situated. We do not provide medical care during transportation.

The ride itself

Designed around your mobility needs

What matters isn't the badge on the van — it's how a passenger gets in, how securely they travel, and how they feel when they arrive.

Specialized reclining seating, including Broda-style chairs, can travel with the passenger.
  • Rear-entry ramp

    Board without transferring out of your chair — no lifts to climb, no awkward angles.

  • Wheelchair securement

    Chairs are anchored to floor tracks with retractor straps and a passenger belt.

  • Comfortable positioning

    Passengers ride upright and forward-facing with room to settle in.

  • Room for larger equipment

    Space for powered chairs and Broda-style reclining seating.

  • Help getting situated

    We handle the ramp, the straps, and the doors — you're never left to manage it.
