Medical equipment hire in Malaysia: wheelchairs, beds and oxygen in RM

Updated 4 November 2026

Renting medical equipment in Malaysia costs from RM 50 a month for a wheelchair, from RM 150 a month for a hospital bed and from RM 300 a month for an oxygen concentrator, with some rehab equipment offered from RM 60 a week. Prices are approximate, from sellers' websites, November 2026. Describe what you need in a request on BlaBlaPrice to get current offers for your city.

Local rules and licences

Businesses that deal with medical devices in Malaysia need licences from the Medical Device Authority (MDA), and its guidance covers the establishments that supply them. Ask the company for its establishment licence before you hire, and keep the rental agreement with the device details. For a home hire, the practical check is whether the supplier is licensed and can service the equipment.

Season and home conditions

Malaysia is hot all year, with wet and dry seasons rather than winter and summer, so there is no winter peak in demand. Hire is needed year round, often after surgery or a hospital discharge. Oxygen concentrators and electric beds need a steady power supply and a dry, ventilated room, so ask about a backup power plan for the wet season.

Lease term, delivery and assembly

For a need of more than a couple of weeks, buying a wheelchair is usually more cost-effective, so compare the monthly rent with the purchase price. Some suppliers advertise delivery within 24 hours. Ask whether that covers your city among Kuala Lumpur, George Town, Johor Bahru, Ipoh and Shah Alam, whether assembly is included, and whether a deposit is needed.

What to put in your request

Name the equipment and the specification you need: bed size, weight capacity in kilograms, or oxygen flow in litres per minute. Give the patient's weight range and mobility needs, not full medical records, along with the lease term in weeks or months, whether delivery and assembly are needed, your city and your monthly budget. Ask what is included, such as servicing.

Write your need in the request chat in your own words, with a photo if it helps. BlaBlaPrice's AI asks for missing details, looks through sellers' websites and price lists in Malaysia, and shows the prices and businesses it found. Registered sellers reply in the chat with their own offer, price and delivery terms, and your contacts stay hidden until you choose whom to contact.
