VAT EXEMPTION
SELF-CERTIFICATION
To purchase a mobility scooter free of VAT you need to declare that you are 'chronically sick or disabled' and that the goods or services are for your own personal or domestic use. This is a self-certification system – we do not require proof of your impairment.
A person is 'chronically sick or disabled' if he or she is a person with either:
- a physical or mental impairment which has a long term and substantial adverse effect upon his or her ability to carry out everyday activities or
- a condition which the medical profession treats as a chronic sickness.
It does not include an elderly person who is not disabled or chronically sick or any person who is only temporarily disabled or incapacitated, such as with a broken limb.
If you are unsure, you should seek guidance from your GP or other medical professional

Introducing the Hercules Car Boot Hoist – the perfect solution for lifting mobility scooters and powerchairs into your car boot with ease. This collapsible hoist, weighing just 13.5kg, is designed to lift up to 30kg and offers a cost-effective, efficient way to manage your mobility equipment.
The hoist operates using the battery of your mobility scooter or power chair via the XLR charging port, provided the equipment runs on 24v. Ideal for most mobility scooters. The hoist comes fully assembled in the box. Simply unfold it to start using – no tools required. The Hercules Hoist also has wheels that allow you to position the hoist as needed, while the rear braking system ensures safe raising and lowering of the lift.
How to Use:
- Unfold the Unit: Take the folded hoist out of the box and unfold it. Raise the telescopic ladder to the desired height.
- Connect the Power: Plug the power cable into the charging port on your mobility scooter.
- Activate the Hoist: Switch on the motor box. The hoist will begin lifting your scooter or powerchair.
- Position the Hoist: Use the wheels to manoeuvre the hoist closer to or further from your car boot as needed. The rear braking system will help you keep the hoist stable while lifting.
- Secure Your Equipment: Once your mobility scooter is in the car boot, fold up the hoist and place it in the boot or the back seat of your car.
PLEASE NOTE:
