About WheelPad:
Goal & Mission
Our goal is to respectfully and supportively provide transitional housing for those who have experienced a spinal cord injury, those with debilitating illnesses such as ALS or MS, Veterans, those who want to age in place, and others newly needing accessible living accommodations in a socially conscious and environmentally friendly way. We are passionate about our product and feel it fits a crucial need unmet by current offerings on the market. With a long term goal of an employee owned manufacturing facility in southern Vermont, we aim to create high-quality jobs attracting employees who share our values and strengthen our community.
Intelligent Design
WheelPad™ accessible home was designed by Joseph Cincotta, Principal Architect of: LineSync Architecture.
WheelPad is designed so that the structure can remain permanently on the wheels used for delivery. With additional jack bracing, an optional deck can be constructed for aesthetic purposes. Insulated electricity and plumbing mimics those used in RV systems. Customization is available.

“I think that this project is incredible as it is led by life, or someone who has had an unfortunate accident, but nothing about this space speaks of being patronizing or being sympathetic, it is completely appropriate in treating you like a human being.”
