Delivery & Returns

Our standard delivery time for the Alerta Self-Propelled Wheelchair is 3-5 days from confirmation. We'll provide tracking updates throughout the process.

We select appropriate courier services based on your item's size, delivery location, and handling requirements.

Returns Process

You can initiate returns through your Wuva account online or by contacting customer service. Once requested, we'll arrange collection.

We understand that items will experience normal wear and tear through regular use, and we cover the costs of refurbishments and maintenance as part of our service.

If an item sustains damage beyond what's considered typical use, you may be charged repair costs. For items that cannot be repaired or are lost, we may charge a maximum of the reasonable market value of the product.

No wrong answer - it depends how long you need it and how much flexibility you want. Subscribing means low monthly payments with nothing upfront. Return, swap, or upgrade after your minimum term, and fair wear and tear is always included.

Buying means a one-off payment and it's yours to keep. Sell it, pass it on, or hold onto it for years. Free delivery either way.

Wheelchair hire made easy

Was so easy to hire the wheelchair I needed. Cost was great to. Even when I had a problem a simple call sorted things out. Would recommend to anyone.

2 great bikes and excellent experience

Great overall experience - excellent bikes (both arrived brand new in their boxes), smooth and friendly communication, and quick delivery and return.

We first rented a Squish 18 and later a Woom 4. I only wish I'd discovered Wuva sooner, as my son used to outgrow bikes and switch sizes twice a year.
