How to Choose the Right Ramp for Your Spring Travel & Adventures

Spring is the perfect time to get outside, explore new places, and enjoy the fresh air. Whether you're heading out on a road trip, hitting the trails, or simply visiting friends and family, having the right ramp can make all the difference in ensuring safe and easy accessibility. From portable ramps for vehicles to durable options for outdoor recreation, here’s how to choose the best ramp for your spring adventures.

1. Consider Where You’re Going

The type of ramp you need depends on your destination. Ask yourself:

  • Will you need a ramp to enter a vehicle or trailer?

  • Are you visiting parks or campgrounds with uneven terrain?

  • Do you need a ramp for accessing a vacation rental, hotel, or event venue?

For road trips and vehicle access, consider portable folding ramps like SUITCASE® Ramps, which are lightweight and easy to store. 

2. Choose a Ramp with the Right Weight Capacity

Before selecting a ramp, check the weight capacity to ensure it supports your mobility device, luggage, or equipment. EZ-ACCESS® ramps are designed to handle various weight loads, from lightweight personal scooters to heavy-duty power chairs and equipment.

3. Look for Compact, Travel-Friendly Options

Spring travel often means packing light, so a ramp that folds or comes apart for easy storage is essential. Consider:

  • Folding ramps for easy transport in vehicles

  • Threshold ramps for small elevation changes in hotels or rentals

The TRANSITIONS® Modular Entry Ramp is a great solution for overcoming small entry barriers without taking up too much space.

4. Prioritize Safety Features

When adventuring in new places, safety is a top priority. Look for ramps with:
Slip-resistant surfaces for wet or muddy conditions
Side rails to prevent wheels from slipping off
Sturdy, weather-resistant materials for durability

EZ-ACCESS ramps are designed with safety in mind, ensuring you can confidently explore without worrying about accessibility challenges.

5. Invest in a Ramp Built for All Conditions

Spring weather can be unpredictable—rain showers, morning dew, mud, or even unexpected snow. Opt for aluminum ramps, which are rust-resistant, easy to clean, and built to withstand various weather conditions.
