| Recycling
your Cart
Because
we realize that many of our carts will outlast our clients’
need for them, we are offering this page to provide some options for
your cart.
Donation
back to Eddie’s Wheels: We gratefully accept
donations of used carts. Your donations allow us to provide custom
carts to rescue groups, veterinary teaching hospitals, hospices and
sanctuaries for free or reduced prices. Refurbished used carts are
modified and resold for substantially reduced prices to those
families with limited financial resources. Donated carts allow us to
provide loaners and short-term rentals within our local geographic
area.
Among
the dozens of donations we have made this past year were:
Your
donations give life and mobility to a dog who might not otherwise
have any option other than euthanasia. We regularly discount custom
carts for dogs in rescue, and the recycling of donated used carts
provides us with the resources to continue this important part of our
mission. If you wish to donate your cart, call us toll-free at
1-888-211-2700 for a return authorization number. We will issue a
call tag and arrange for pick-up and shipping of your cart back to
our facility.
Selling
your Used Cart on this Site
Original
owners of carts that are no more than one year old have the
option of using this page to advertise their carts for sale. We are
limiting this site to new carts in the possession of the original
owners only, as we have no way of vouching for the condition or
measurements of carts after they have been used by more than one dog.
We
will publish the measurements that the cart was built to, your
contact information and the asking price on our website for one month
only. Carts listed here should be in excellent condition, and
should be shipped fully assembled in the original box with only the
wheels removed, if necessary.
If
you wish to list your cart on our website for sale, email Leslie@eddieswheels.com with your name, how you wish to be contacted, and the sale price of
your cart.
For
Buyers Only
If you don’t find anything on
the list, feel free to email Leslie@eddieswheels.com to see if a donated used cart is available that might fit your dog.
Buyer
BEWARE: It has come to our attention that there are people
buying used carts and re-selling them on internet auction sites –
often listing them without the measurements of the cart, the gender
for which it was built, and important information about the design of
the cart. For instance, counterbalanced carts should not be used by
dogs with normal front leg strength. We strongly advise against
buying carts unless the seller can provide you with this vital
information.
