Reliable Rides and Supportive Service for Wheelchair Users in Toledo
Getting around town should be simple — even if you rely on a wheelchair or have mobility limitations. In Toledo and the surrounding Northwest Ohio area, Black & White makes that possible with reliable, professional wheelchair-accessible transportation, helping riders get where they need to be with ease. Whether it’s a doctor’s appointment, a trip to the store, or a night out, having a dependable ride matters.
Let’s explore what makes Black & White a dependable choice for wheelchair-accessible transportation and how it supports the daily lives of older adults and passengers with disabilities in our community.
Why Wheelchair Accessible Transportation Is Essential
For many individuals with disabilities, finding a ride service that meets physical needs is more than a convenience — it’s essential for daily living. It means being able to attend medical appointments on time, shop for groceries, participate in community events, or visit loved ones.
That’s where specialized services come in — and Black & White Transportation leads the way locally.
Public transportation can be inconsistent or difficult to access, and not every taxi or rideshare vehicle can safely accommodate a passenger with a mobility device.
What Sets Black & White Transportation Apart
1. Wheelchair-Accessible Vehicles
The company offers a fleet of specially equipped vehicles that can handle wheelchairs. These rides provide extra space, safety straps, and a comfortable boarding experience for individuals who use mobility aids.
More than the equipment, though, it’s the people that make the difference. Drivers are trained to provide proper assistance while maintaining professionalism and courtesy.
2. Non-Emergency Medical Transportation (NEMT)
Black & White Transportation is a trusted provider of non-emergency medical transportation for caregivers, hospital managers, health facilities, and their patients and wards. Whether it’s dialysis, physical therapy, routine checkups, or specialist visits, the service helps passengers arrive safely and on time.
Riders don’t have to stress about timing or complicated transfers. One ride, one trained driver, and no surprise issues getting in or out of the vehicle.
3. Airport Transfers for Mobility Device Users
Traveling by air comes with plenty of stages — checking in, navigating security, and boarding the plane. The last thing you need to worry about is how to get to or from Toledo Express (KTOL) or any other airport. Black & White Transportation offers airport rides for passengers with wheelchairs. Whether you’re catching a flight or arriving back home, transportation that accommodates mobility equipment is available by request.
No squeezing into tight cars or struggling with luggage on your lap — just safe, respectful service that gets you there on time.
Service That Understands the Details
Accessible transportation isn’t just about the type of van or the presence of a ramp. It’s about how the entire experience is handled — from the moment you schedule a ride to when you’re dropped off at your destination.
Drivers understand how to safely assist passengers who need extra support. Whether it’s helping with a seatbelt, adjusting the ramp, or making sure your wheelchair is secure, they know how to make the ride safe and smooth.
Plus, the vehicles are maintained to meet high cleanliness and safety standards, giving riders added confidence on every trip.

- Local events
- Work commutes

Traversa™ Chair: A Smarter Alternative to Stretcher Transport for Those Who Need It
Black & White Transportation now offers a safer, more comfortable option for patients who don’t require ambulance services but need extra support during transit. Through our paratransit division, we proudly provide transportation with the Traversa™ chair by Broda — a modern, bariatric-capable mobility solution that bridges the gap between standard wheelchair accessible transportation and traditional stretcher service.
This specialized chair is perfect for hospital discharges, medical appointments, and procedures where EMS transport isn’t necessary. With features like heat-activated cushioning, a shock-absorbing frame, and 20-degree tilt capability, passengers enjoy a smooth ride with dignity and comfort. Better yet, patients can remain in the chair during their visit, minimizing unnecessary transfers.
This non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) service costs less than half the price of an ambulance while meeting the highest national standards — Black & White Transportation is the only NEMTAC-accredited provider in Ohio.

With a full range of ride services, professional drivers, and easy booking options, it’s a company that knows what riders need — and delivers.
