Segway of Oakland Now Offers Reduced Rental Costs for Police and Security

The Segway PT is one of the greatest law enforcement tools ever invented. And now with Segway of Oakland's 2-for-1 police rental sale, departments can rent a Segway for half price!

Renting is better than buying for a lot of police departments and security companies. The Segway is especially helpful for crowded events or other areas where there is a concentration of people. The Segway is the ultimate patrol vehicle in a crowd because of its incredible maneuverability. Since the Segway can cover 25 times the ground in a day versus a person walking, it is easy to see why the Segway is so productive for so many applications.

The Segway works everywhere from schools, in parks, or in crowded city centers. It makes the officer, more approachable while at the same time giving more opportunity to cover more ground. The Segway can even be a winner at ballparks, convention centers, or just about anywhere that has a concentration of pedestrians.

Almost everybody has seen the Segways in malls or other public venues, or they have seen the movie "Mall Cop" where Paul Blart is the hero and rides the Segway. Laughs aside, the Segway really excels in both malls and airports where there are long hallways and walkways to patrol. The Segway covers that ground so much faster than walking that it's ridiculous. And a quad or a cushman just does not have the same kind of versatility and maneuverability in tight spaces. A Segway moves just as easily indoors as out, making it a better way to go than anything else out there.

Segways have one flaw and that is they are still expensive. But with Segway of Oakland's new rental program, police departments and security professionals can rent them anywhere in Nor Cal for half the normal price and give it a try without breaking the bank. Segway of Oakland is the only Segway dealer that has this kind of program.

Further, for those that do decide to buy, Segway of Oakland has more service options and more sales options as well. Nobody has been fixing Segways as long as the mechanics at Segway of Oakland, and almost everybody that has had major service done knows about the special care that Segway or Oakland treats it's customers and their units.

"We are one of the oldest Segway dealers and we have a lot of experience" said Darren Romar from Segway of Oakland. "We've been dealing with the Segway longer so customers can be assured of having a better experience when they do business with us", he continued.

"The Segway operates like no other vehicle so training and a staff are needed to make the Segway experience start out on the right foot”, said Romar. It is easy to have an adverse experience with a Segway because this vehicle takes some training and because it's operation is different from any other mode of transport, some people do not get started the right way.

Now the value that police departments and security professionals can obtain with this package surpasses everything else.
