IndependenceFirst Mobility Store

The Mobility Store in Wauwatosa is the resale retail arm of IndependenceFirst, a nonprofit whose program merged with the Wheelchair Recycling Program. It collects donated medical equipment, sanitizes and refurbishes it, and resells it at affordable prices — wheelchairs, scooters, walkers, hospital beds, and adaptive bikes among them. The model gives used equipment a second life while keeping costs down for buyers who might otherwise struggle to afford new gear. The store is at 3720 N 124th St, Suite F, Wauwatosa; the phone is (414) 988-5333 and hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30am–5:30pm, with the nonprofit’s site at independencefirst.org. Because the stock depends on donations, the selection varies over time, which is part of the store’s character. For shoppers, it is a place to find refurbished mobility gear at below-new prices, backed by a disability-services nonprofit rather than a conventional retailer. The recycling-program roots give it a distinctive, mission-driven feel.
