Wheelchairs: Manual and Electric Options
Manual Wheelchairs
The DICARE Standard Wheelchair starts at $198 — well below what you'd pay for a comparable model at most national chains. It's a practical, reliable choice for everyday use or short-term recovery, and a good starting point if you're working within a tight NDIS budget.
Electric and Power Wheelchairs
For powered mobility, Direct Mobility carries options like the Pinnacle Featherlite Gen 2 Carbon Fibre Electric Wheelchair — just 13.15 kg, and compact enough to fold into a car boot. A free home trial is available on select models, so you can try before you decide.

Electric Scooters for Caroline Springs Residents
A mobility scooter can give you the freedom to get around your neighbourhood, pop into local shops, or make it to appointments without depending on someone else. Direct Mobility carries a range of scooters to suit different needs and budgets.
If you're an NDIS participant, some scooters may be fundable under your plan. Not sure what's covered? The team can help you work through it.

Walking Aids, Bathroom Safety and Daily Living Products
A fall — or the fear of one — is often what prompts families in Caroline Springs to start looking for equipment urgently. The right walking aid or bathroom safety product can make a real difference to confidence and independence at home.
Direct Mobility stocks:
- Walking aids — walkers, rollators, quad canes, and crutches for different levels of support
- Bathroom and toilet aids — grab rails, shower chairs, raised toilet seats, and commodes
- Daily living aids — products that help with dressing, eating, reaching, and other everyday tasks
Most of these are available to buy or hire, and many can be delivered the same day across the western suburbs.
Lift Recliner Chairs
If getting up from a chair has become painful or difficult, a lift recliner can make a genuine difference to daily life at home. Direct Mobility carries several models:
- Dicare Comfort Care Viva 2 Motor Power Lift Recliner — currently $995 (down from $1,998), available in multiple fabric and tech leather options
- Configura Comfort Lift Chair — a premium option at $4,448, available in small, medium, and large sizes
Lift recliners can sometimes be funded through NDIS or a Home Care Package. Request a quote and the team will let you know what applies to your situation.
NDIS and Home Care Package Support
Direct Mobility is a registered NDIS supplier, which means if you have an approved plan, you can use your funding to purchase eligible equipment — without having to wade through complicated paperwork on your own.
It works like this:
- You choose the equipment you need
- Direct Mobility handles the NDIS side
- Your equipment is delivered — often the same day
On a Home Care Package? Direct Mobility works with package coordinators too. You don't need to figure out the funding details yourself — just get in touch and they'll work through it with you.
Visit the NDIS page at directmobility.com.au for more on how funded purchases work.
Equipment Hire Near Caroline Springs
Not every situation calls for a permanent purchase. If you're recovering from surgery, hosting a family member with temporary mobility needs, or waiting on NDIS plan approval, hiring equipment is often the smarter option.
Direct Mobility's hire shop offers short- and long-term rental on wheelchairs and other mobility equipment — something most local competitors don't offer. You're not locked into buying something you might only need for a few weeks.
