CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, enero 3, 2025 – Next Day Access, a leading provider of mobility and accessibility solutions, is pleased to announce its Illinois expansion with the addition of Next Day Access of North Suburban Chicago. The franchise is owned and operated by Steve and Jennifer Nolan.

After extensive research and engagement with various franchises and existing business opportunities, Steve Nolan took his 30 years of experience in building brands and growing business and invested in Next Day Access of North Suburban Chicago. 

“What’s most important to me is surrounding myself with great people driven by a common purpose,” said Steve Nolan. “The Next Day Access team is exceptional, offering the kind of support that small businesses need to thrive. Having personal experience with family and friends navigating the complexities of aging in place, I’m deeply passionate about supporting seniors, individuals with disabilities, and those recovering from injuries. Helping people in my community live comfortably and independently in their own homes for as long as they want is a mission I’m truly excited to be a part of.”

The Nolans felt that the Next Day Access corporate organization provided the infrastructure, training, and support from a team of mobility experts that would be necessary to provide top-tier service to their customers. “The knowledge, best practices and level of professionalism made me feel extremely confident about choosing Next Day Access,” said Jennifer Nolan.

Next Day Access St. Louis Donates Solution and Service to Customer in Need

St. Louis, Missou., noviembre 1, 2024 – Next Day Access St. Louis, a local leader in accessibility and mobility solutions throughout the greater St. Louis area, donated product and services to a local customer in need.

People of all ages can find themselves in need of accessibility products, whether it be for temporary assistance or permanent independence. One woman in St. Louis found herself homebound due to a medical condition. Furthermore, she was confined to the second story of her home, unable to safely navigate her home for the last few weeks. As time continued to pass with no solution in sight, their story was amplified by a local news reporter. That’s how word got out to Next Day Access St. Louis owner, Brian Liberman.

Brian got in touch with the local news station, who provided information to him. “She was very appreciative that I had even called and was thrilled when I said we would come to her home the next day to do an evaluation,” Brian states. Joined by Joseph Wood, his technician, they began the free assessment of their customer’s home, shown around by her husband. The duo conducted a free consultation, ran through a few options, and they landed on a pre-owned stairlift as the right solution.

“The stairlift that we found was a Bruno Elite in good condition, but it was a left hand unit and she needed a right hand unit,” Brian says. “That required us to change all of the components from left to right.” After making those adjustments, adding new batteries and a new charger, the stairlift was ready for their new customer to use to gain her independence back. Because Brian and Joseph were able to find a reasonably priced solution, they decided to not only donate the stairlift, but also install it free of charge.

Brian says working for Next Day Access is “the most gratifying job I have ever had.” He hopes that his actions inspire others to continue to serve their community and find ways to go above and beyond for others. “I would hope that anyone who sees the story could think about how the “job” that they do and the skills that they possess could benefit someone in need.”

MARIETTA, GEORGIA, UNITED STATES, agosto 26, 2024 – Next Day Access is opening their first Georgia location with Atlanta Metro North, owned by John Sullivan.

A longtime Georgia resident, John Sullivan moved to the peach state when he was three from Tennessee. He studied international business in Atlanta and after graduation worked overseas for two years. After his return to the US, John spent the next 30 years working around the world managing the international business of leading construction material manufacturers. After years of success with other businesses, it made perfect sense to begin his own business adventure. He studied international business in Atlanta and after graduation worked overseas for two years. After his return to the US, John spent the next 30 years working around the world managing the international business of leading construction material manufacturers

“The goal in setting up my own business was to find a way to do so in a meaningful way,” John states. “I have seen family and friends dealing with aging in place at home and with long- and short-term health crises and the growing need that exists in these areas.” Always the problem-solver, John got to work researching franchises that would help him achieve his goals.

Next Day Access Memphis recently connected with an injured School Resource Officer (SRO) and donated a wheelchair ramp during his recovery.

Rick Singletary of Brighton, TN worked as a police officer for twenty-two years, but his current job at Atoka Elementary School has surprised him the most. “The kids ask all kinds of questions,” Rick remarked. “They love going in for hugs or fist bumps, and the parents show a lot of appreciation.” Each morning, he is at the front of the school helping unload the buses, greeting parents and students, and ensuring a safe school environment.

The Monday following Spring Break, the day began just like any other until Rick heard a frantic voice over the radio. A child who had been known to elope was running into the street, outpacing many of the teachers in the vicinity. Even worse, the flashing school zone signs had not been turned on after Spring Break, so cars were going the regular speed limit. Rick didn’t think twice; he immediately sprang into action, catching up with the child nearly fifty yards out just before he made his way into the busy street. The child spun around and went straight towards the road. “All I had left to do was dive and grab his feet,” Rick recalls, and that’s exactly how the fiasco ended. After getting up off the ground, Rick noticed some pain in his leg. “I took some ibuprofen like my wife suggested and went about my day. The next day, I woke up and my leg was nearly black.” Luckily, the student was uninjured.

Rick’s kneecap was broken, and his mobility was greatly limited throughout his home. When his wife struggled to get him out of the house during a storm, he knew he needed to find a temporary solution. “It’s not about me, but it’s about making it easy for her,” Rick said of his wife, who he’s been with for 37 years. “She’s doing so much for me.” Moved by his fearless actions, Next Day Access Memphis was more than happy to donate a temporary wheelchair ramp while Rick recovers.

“When I heard the story of Rick Singletary’s injury due to his heroic act, I was moved,” Greg Inman, Director of Franchise Operations, states. “We don’t hear these stories of bravery every day.  We at Next Day Access Memphis didn’t think twice about providing him with a wheelchair ramp during his recovery. We need more people like officer Rick Singletary!”

In his recovery time, he enjoys spending time with his family and his two dogs, Snelly and Fluffy. When asked what he is most excited for when he’s better, Rick immediately responded with, “I want to get back to work. I miss those kids so much.”

RALEIGH/DURHAM, NORTH CAROLINA, UNITED STATES, mayo 13, 2024 – Next Day Access is proud to announce the opening of the Next Day Access Raleigh/Durham, NC franchise location.

Next Day Access is expanding to two locations in North Carolina. Rob Williams and Jason Williamson are the owners of Next Day Access Raleigh/Durham, NC, serving the Triangle area.

Rob began his career in general contracting, which he has done for 32 years, and he has worked in real estate for 21 years. His understanding of the accessibility world grew as he began modifying his father’s home. While he was living independently, Rob’s father relied heavily on the accessibility devices Rob installed, such as grab bars and wheelchair ramps. Doing this fulfilling work helped Rob realize that this was a business in which he wanted to invest, and he knew who he wanted to partner with to begin this journey.

Jason Williamson is a Gulf War veteran, and his work in real estate spans over 25 years, and he owns and operates the nonprofit Williamson Resource Foundation, which partners with local VA chapters to educate the public on financial literacy and helps unhoused individuals. As a disabled veteran himself, Jason empathizes with those who were injured in action, so it made perfect sense for him to partner with Rob in opening a Next Day Access franchise location. They are joined by Jason Williamson II, their technician, Brook Williams, Rob’s wife, and other employees.

Next Day Access Raleigh/Durham, NC will serve the Triangle area of North Carolina. They specialize in wheelchair ramps, stairlifts, grab bars, porch lifts, and more. To learn more about Next Day Access Raleigh/Durham, NC, visit their website: https://www.nextdayaccess.com/raleigh-durham-nc/

This month, we’d like to highlight the journey of Matthew Boncada, Next Day Access San Antonio’s very own. 

Matthew joined the Next Day Access San Antonio team in septiembre 2022, ready to assist the existing technician and embark on a new adventure in San Antonio. He packed up his belongings, his dog Harley and drove solo from Salt Lake City to San Antonio. Little did he know that his adventure would take an unexpected turn on his very first day. As fate would have it, the existing technician left the company abruptly, leaving Matthew as their newest and sole technician.

What followed was an astonishing 11-month transformation that showcased Matthew’s dedication and resilience. He not only learned a myriad of skills but also gained profound product knowledge across their entire range. Matthew’s relentless pursuit of knowledge and improvement turned him into not just a technician but also a leader.

Today, Matthew leads a team of three employees, passing on his wealth of knowledge and skills to them on a daily basis. His rapid ascent from a solo technician to a team leader is a testament to his hard work and commitment. We applaud Matthew for the tremendous effort he has put into reaching the level he’s at now.

As we move forward, we’re excited to witness the continued growth of Matthew and the entire team. Matthew’s journey is a reminder that adaptability, determination, and a thirst for knowledge are the keys to success. Congratulations, Matthew, you are our Tech of the Month, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for you and your team!
