Oakland Stairlifts Experience An Increase In Curved Stairlift Rental Due To Accidents In The Snow

Online, January 25, 2013 (Newswire.com) - The recent weather the UK has been experiencing led to widespread snowfall and freezing temperatures which froze the ground and caused the compacted snow to turn into solid ice. This ice has caused many people to slip over, meaning injuries like broken wrists and legs have become more common. People suffering from broken legs find themselves suddenly unable to get into work or move around their homes, meaning they need to adjust to not being able to do a lot for weeks while their bones heal.

To help cope with their injuries people have been renting stairlifts for their homes. A stairlift will help someone with a broken leg by meaning they won't need to even try and walk. Renting a stairlift is much cheaper than buying one, as the weeks of renting will only total a few hundred pounds, whereas buying a stairlift can cost someone thousands of pounds.

Oakland Stairlifts has experienced and increase in curved stairlift rental, a service which is rare to find among stairlift suppliers. A Customer Service Representative for the company commented, "We've heard of many people falling over in the snow, and unfortunately the situation is the same every year. Luckily we can now provide to people in these situations better than ever, especially with our new curved stairlift rental service. Thanks to this service we can offer anyone a stairlift solution in their home for a monthly rental cost instead of a one of purchase."

Every year there are injuries caused by the snow being compacted and freezing. Shops can help to prevent this by putting out something for their customers to walk on, and clearing the snow from the front of their shops, but many still don't as they feel they don't have the time.

Oakland Stairlifts is a stairlift supplier based in Leicester UK. They have a wide range of stairlifts which they offer to customers who require them both for rental and for one off purchases, depending on the circumstances.
