Accessible Passenger Van Car Service Help
Hi all.

Looking for a car service (NYC area) that offers something like this (picture below). A 8-10 passenger Van with an accessible ramp (note: minivan will not be enough).

I have called around but apparently I'm looking for a unicorn. If anyone knows where I may be able to find this unicorn, I'll appreciate it !

Thank you for any help !

I'd call a disability support/svc organization in NYC and ask them who they use.

erik123 Thank you. I've heard this from a couple of other folks too so I'm now gathering the contact info for the local aging services office and will start with them tomorrow. Someone also suggested I try local school bus companies, so will give them a call as well. Thanks again.

jerry a. laska Clearly you're better at searching for this than I have been. Thank you! I submitted a quote request with Advantage Limo and heard back already. Hopefully I can have all this sorted out this week. Thanks again.

Thanks but they don't have anything bigger than a Minivan w/ ramp.

jerry a. laska 's recommendation [Advantage Limo] worked out. Got a Mercedes Sprinter with ramp all squared away !
