Transport wheelchairs are low cost alternatives to more expensive standard wheelchairs. However, they are designed to be pushed by someone other than the user. These chairs are commonly used in hospital and home settings. These chairs have smaller wheels in the front and larger wheels in the back. The larger rear wheels make the chair easier to push. Caregivers can easily carry transport chairs in a vehicle and it can be stored in a trunk of a car. They can also be used around the house with little difficulty.
