A Smarter Way to Get Your Loved One to Their Appointment

For wheelchair users and their families who need safe stair access before a medical appointment, hospital visit, rehabilitation session, or community activity – Hercules provides a professional wheelchair stair transfer valet service that handles the hardest part of the journey: the stairs.

Unlike standard patient transport providers such as NSW Health PTS, National Patient Transport, St John Ambulance, Ambulance Victoria, ComfortDelGro NPT, MediRide, Wilson Medic One, Medical Edge, Absolute Medical Response, CareFlight, HART Services, and Australian Red Cross Transport – Hercules is not a transport company. We are Australia’s specialist stair climbing experts. We get your loved one safely down the stairs in their own wheelchair using professional-grade equipment, then you can drive them to their appointment yourself at your own time schedule.

How It Works:

1. Book Hercules – schedule your wheelchair stair transfer valet at a time that suits your appointment

2. Our operator arrives at your home with the PS Universal wheelchair stairclimber

3. Safe, dignified transfer – your family member reverses onto the platform in their own wheelchair, backrest secured, brakes applied, and glides smoothly up or down the stairs

4. You drive – take your family member to their appointment in your own vehicle

5. We return for the trip home if needed
