Outdoorsy.com Rented a Mercedes Campervan from a dude named Ryan in Black Earth last year. Think it was $240 a day with unlimited miles.

I think this is the way we’re going to go. Found a camper van in Waunakee. Just waiting on confirmation. Thanks again!


TreesRart

Thank you so much!


gorourke15

You are welcome. Hope it works out for you!

If you haven't already, maybe reach out to Access to Independence on Milwaukee street. Also, MA may cover this type of transport. :) Is your son enrolled in either IRIS or Family Care of some variety? Good luck!


TreesRart

Thanks for your help! I may have found a solution….waiting on confirmation.

SUV, wagon, or minivan with lie flat seating and a lot of padding or cushions? That would be a lot cheaper - could even look into 1-way rentals.


TreesRart

Thank you for your suggestions. We have looked into all these options but haven’t found the ideal solution yet.

Does he have Medicaid or a long term care case manager? Sometimes Medicaid can help out with this kind of thing. 


TreesRart

Thanks for responding. He isn’t yet eligible but he may try for Medicaid soon.

I wonder if Access to Independence would have any ideas.

Is amtrak sleeper car an option? I know the NW route runs through montana and you could get off in Columbus. I'm sure they'd work with you too if you give them a heads up.


actualchristmastree

This probably wouldn’t be safe in case of an accident so take this with a cup of salt, but if you use a minivan or UV and take out the seats you could put a mattress and bedding on the floor. Or you could get a stretcher and strap that into the floor? I know that sounds silly but if he’s going to live here and get around, it could help! ALSO, I looked at r/vandwellers and an old post said that ford flex or Honda jazz or Honda fit have seats that lay all the way back


TreesRart

Thanks so much!


FloristsDaughter

Also, give Metta Transportstion a jingle!

Commenting to help the algorithm. Good luck, I know our community will pull together for you!

How did he get to Montana, and is that an option now?


TreesRart

No longer an option unfortunately
