Reviews
I purchased the ramps so that I can roll my mother up into the back of my full size van. She lives in a nursing home and I try to pick her up a few times a month for a visit at our house. I have no problem loading her into the van and my son who is about 140 lbs. can easily push my mother who is between 140 - 170 lbs. up the ramps by himself. I love having my feet on solid ground between the ramps as I push her up and into the van. Once she is in I put a ratchet type strap through the wheelchair and use the mounting rods for the backseat to tie her wheelchair down to. I need to check the law to see if there is a regulation for wheelchair transportation in a private vehicle that I have to abide by. But for now this works very well for the five mile trip from the nursing home to our house. So a set of 10' ramps works very well for loading someone in a wheelchair into a full size van with a ratio of 1 pound for the person pushing to up to a 1.25 pounds for the person sitting in a wheelchair.
