Quick Overview

The Wheelchair Carrier Model 101 Electric Tilt n Tote is the powered version of the classic Tilt n Tote, built for people who can transfer into a vehicle but do not want to wrestle a 40 plus pound folded wheelchair into a trunk. Press the button and the steel platform tilts down to the pavement. Roll the folded chair on, cinch the two retractable ratchet straps, press again and the carrier lifts the chair to a full 24 inches of ground clearance for driveways, ramps and rough pavement.

The platform accepts manual folding wheelchairs up to 20 by 13 inches folded and 29 inches long, with a 150 lb weight capacity that covers standard and most heavy duty manual chairs. The carrier itself weighs 80 lb and slides into either a 1 1/4 inch or a 2 inch square receiver on a Class II or Class III hitch, so it works on most sedans, crossovers, SUVs and vans without vehicle modification.

Power comes straight from the vehicle battery through the included 21 foot wire harness, protected by a 30 amp resettable circuit breaker. When the chair is not aboard, the platform folds up into a compact stowaway position tight against the bumper. The all steel frame gets an e coat plus powder finish for rust resistance and is backed by a 3 year transferable warranty from a company that has been building carriers in Wauseon Ohio since 1977.

Accessories

How to Purchase & What's Included

How do I get a price for the Model 101?

We sell the Model 101 on a quote basis so we can pair you with the right configuration and the best available price. Call us toll free at 1-888-233-5563 or use our contact form and we will have a quote back to you the same business day in most cases.

Does Medicare, Medicaid or private insurance help pay for the Model 101?

Most products in this range do not meet the strict medical device rules that Medicare and Medicaid use, so they rarely qualify for coverage. We do not work with Medicare and we do not bill private insurance directly.

Some private plans will reimburse you outside of the Medicare framework. The best way to find out is to call your insurer and ask. If they say yes, we are happy to provide an invoice and proof of purchase so you can file for reimbursement.

Notice to Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. Medicare pays for equipment only when the supplier has a Medicare supplier number. Heavy Duty Mobility does not have one, so Medicare will not pay for anything we sell you. You are personally and fully responsible for payment.

Shipping, Warranty & Returns

Shipping

How long until my Model 101 arrives?

Orders typically leave the warehouse within one to three business days. Once on the way, expect a transit time of around three to seven business days depending on your distance from the warehouse.

The stock status sits just under the product title near the top of this page. If it shows a lead time, the ship out window is that lead time plus the normal transit time above.

Will I get tracking?

Yes. As soon as your order ships we email you a tracking link so you can follow it all the way to your door.

Warranty

What warranty comes with the Model 101?

Wheelchair Carrier backs the Model 101 with a manufacturer limited warranty. The exact coverage terms for this model are listed in the Specifications tab and the product documentation. Normal wear items and damage from misuse or accidents are excluded, as with all manufacturer warranties.

If something goes wrong, reach out to us first. We can often sort out a fix over the phone or ship a replacement part. Contact us and we will help.

Returns

Can I return the Model 101?

Yes, returns are possible. Please read the full returns policy for the details.

Documentation, Manuals & Safety

Official documents from Wheelchair Carrier for the Model 101

Key safety notes. Always secure the chair with both retractable ratchet straps before driving. Confirm your hitch is rated Class II or higher and that tongue weight allows the 80 lb carrier plus your chair. The 30 amp breaker resets itself but repeated trips mean the wiring should be inspected. Never ride on the platform and never load a chair with a person in it.

Daily Operation & Transportation

Daily use is a three step routine. Press the switch to tilt the platform down, roll the folded chair onto the deck between the side rails, then pull the two retractable ratchet straps over the frame and click them tight. Press the switch again and the actuator lifts and levels the platform for travel with 24 inches of clearance under the chair.

The carrier draws power from the vehicle battery through the supplied 21 foot harness, so there is nothing to charge and no separate battery to maintain. With no chair aboard, fold the platform up into its stowaway position to shorten the footprint behind the vehicle and keep the deck clean. For winter storage or car washes the whole unit pulls out of the receiver like any hitch cargo rack, though at 80 lb it is a two person or dolly job.

Common Questions

Will the Model 101 fit my car

It fits any vehicle with a Class II or Class III hitch and slides into either a 1 1/4 inch or a 2 inch square receiver. Check that your hitch tongue weight rating covers the 80 lb carrier plus the weight of your chair.

What wheelchairs can it carry

It is designed for manual folding wheelchairs up to 20 by 13 inches when folded with a maximum length of 29 inches and a total weight up to 150 lb. It is not intended for power wheelchairs or scooters.

Does it need its own battery

No. The included 21 foot wire harness connects to your vehicle battery and a 30 amp resettable circuit breaker protects the circuit, so there is nothing separate to charge.

How much effort does loading take

You roll the folded chair onto the lowered platform and secure two retractable ratchet straps. The electric actuator does the tilting and lifting, so there is no manual lifting of the chair.

Can I still open my rear hatch with the carrier installed

With the standard mount the carrier sits behind the hatch. Wheelchair Carrier offers a swing away option that pivots the platform aside for hatch and van door access. Ask us when you request a quote.

What warranty comes with it

Wheelchair Carrier covers the frame and workmanship with a 3 year transferable limited warranty. The motor and actuator carry one year of coverage.

Why is there no price shown

Factory availability on this model changes, so we quote it live. Call or message us and we confirm current price and lead time with the manufacturer the same day.

Why buy the Model 101 from us?

  • We confirm your hitch class, receiver size and folded chair dimensions before we place the order so the Model 101 fits the first time.
  • Quote based ordering means we check current factory availability on this model for you rather than selling from a stale stock feed.
  • Real humans answer our phones and we coordinate directly with the Wheelchair Carrier factory in Ohio on warranty questions.
  • We can bundle installation guidance and wiring tips for your specific vehicle at no charge.
  • Free shipping quotes to the lower 48 with honest lead times stated up front.

Is Wheelchair Carrier a Good Brand?

Wheelchair Carrier has designed and built hitch mounted mobility carriers in Wauseon Ohio since 1977, which makes it one of the longest running names in vehicle lifts for wheelchairs and scooters. The product line runs from simple manual Tote racks to electric scooter and powerchair lifts, all produced at the same Ohio facility rather than imported. The company backs its frames with a 3 year transferable limited warranty and one year coverage on electrical parts, and it still sells straps, harnesses and service parts direct. Nearly five decades of focused carrier manufacturing is a strong signal you will still get parts and support years from now.
