Hi W-

 

We will rent ramps to anyone in the United States and how we handle
shipping is we issue a call tag and charge for shipping to and from the
user. When you finish the rental contact us and we will send the return
shipping label so all you have to do is put the ramp back in the box and
ship it back to us.

Hi Paul, 

Hi Anne, I didn't realize that your company rents portable ramps
too.  Do you ship them anywhere in North America and how does one ship
them back to you when they are done.

My company rents ramps. We simply need to know the duration of
the rental; shipping location(s) and what type of ramp you are
interested in (i.e. portable, folding etc.). Contact us toll-free at
(800) 876-RAMP (7267) for more information.

Hi,

 

Would you guys mind sharing which airlines you have had success with and
which ones you have not and why

 

I am traveling to Fort Myers from San Diego in April with my wife.  I'm
a c5/6 quad and our flight has one stop requiring  a change of planes.

 

Also, we need to rent a 6ft ramp, anyone have any ideas?

 

Thanks!

Spring

 

Spring has sprung and it's oh so green.

Life is vibrant and awake, a living dream.

It's been so cold, dreary and damp but

now is the season to set up camp.

We'll grab our canoes and float a steady stream,

leave our troubles behind and just day dream.

 

But it's different for me,

floating isn't easily done.

But that's OK, 

I can still have fun.

I look to my friends

who do this with ease,

and I look towards God

and I say, "Oh, please

I know I can't do what I've done before

but show me a life with an open door."



Katie Banister

 

The Shade

 

Life needs light 

To see so clear

Deprivation 

Instills fear

 

You can't keep someone in the shade

They'll whither choke & die

How can they grow, how will they know

What it's like to try?

 

Protection by prejudice 

Is not the way to teach

Try understanding and compassion

extend beyond your reach

Cultivate your being

Don't put yourself above

Shed beams of light

Fee from fright

Because everyone needs love.

Its that time of the year I guess.  Here in Chicago, you can now
purchase Hot Dogs with deer meat.  Looks like any regular hot dog with
all the trimmings and served in a bun.

Most don't know the difference.

In addition, my company has put together a

meet your specific needs. The Home Access Program is an initiative sponsored by
Handi-Ramp, one of the oldest and most trusted names in accessibility since
1958. Our customers expressed a need for resources in the areas of home
modifications and relocation services. 

 

The Home Access Program features a FREE
searchable national database of realtors, design consultants, handymen,
architects, and contractors. Also, we’ve teamed up with Countrywide Home
Loans to help roll the cost of home modifications into your mortgage as well as
provide reverse mortgages. Other great features of the Program include: daily ADA news, a monthly
newsletter, and accessible home listings.  Check out the website to learn
