Your Unused Wheelchair or Knee Scooter Can Help Someone in Need

Every day, members of our community benefit from access to medical equipment that helps them stay mobile and independent. Whether recovering from surgery, managing a disability, or needing temporary support, having a wheelchair or knee scooter can make a significant difference in daily life.

If you have a wheelchair or knee scooter you no longer need, donating it to Ohio Valley Goodwill ensures it goes to someone who can put it to good use. More than just a donation, it’s an opportunity to support mobility, independence, and well-being in your community—at no cost to the recipient.

Why Your Donation Matters

  1. Provide Someone with the Tools to Stay Active
    A wheelchair or knee scooter can help someone continue their daily routine, get to work, or recover with ease. Your donation ensures that people have access to the equipment they need to stay mobile and independent.
  2. A No-Cost Solution for Those in Need
    Through our Medical Equipment Loaner Program, individuals can borrow wheelchairs, knee scooters, and other mobility aids for a nominal $5 deposit. When the item is returned to the same Goodwill location it was picked up from, the deposit is refunded—meaning these life-changing items can be used completely free of charge.
  3. Ensure This Program Helps More People in the Future
    The Medical Equipment Loaner Program exists because of ongoing community donations. Without a steady supply of wheelchairs and knee scooters, fewer people can benefit from this valuable service. By donating, you help ensure that anyone who needs mobility assistance—now and in the future—has access to these essential resources.
  4. Reduce Waste & Promote Sustainability
    Medical equipment is built to last, yet too often, it ends up in landfills. Donating your equipment gives it a second life and helps keep valuable resources out of waste streams.
