Equipment Loans

MonTECH does not sell anything. Instead, we loan devices and equipment and offer free 1:1 support. Loans are typically 30, 90, or 180 days (limited to 12 items at a time).

Residents of the Missoula area pick up equipment at our office on the U of M campus. For those living elsewhere in Montana, MonTECH provides free shipping/return shipping (although some items are too expensive to ship and must be picked up in Missoula; see item description).

Use MonTECH to explore tools to help you meet challenges, trial a device, or serve a temporary need. We house equipment for vision and hearing impairment, learning disabilities, communication issues, and mobility and positioning needs. We also loan adaptive recreation equipment.

AT for Public School Teams and Students

These items were purchased with funding from the Montana Office of Public Instruction. They can only be borrowed by teachers and staff of Montana’s public schools, and students/families who attend Montana’s public schools. If you would like to borrow equipment you see in this category, but you are not affiliated with Montana’s public-school system, please check our regular inventory or contact MonTECH to discuss borrowing a similar item.

AgEquipt: Agricultural-Specific Adaptive Equipment

Items in our AgEquipt Loan Closet category belong to the Cutting Fences Foundation. Due to the size of most of these items a delivery or pick-up method is determined upon request. The Cutting Fences Foundation serves farmers, ranchers, and Veterans in agriculture who are living with a disability or illness. They strive to meet the unique needs of these underserved populations and in order to do this agricultural/Veteran consumers will be prioritized in the loaning process. Once requested a representative of Cutting Fences Foundation will contact you to arrange delivery of the equipment.

Local Pick-up Locations

While MonTECH can ship most items to you, some equipment is too large or heavy to ship and must be picked up in Missoula. A variety of frequently requested items are also available for pick up at our Billings location on the MSU-Billings campus. Below, find a list of equipment available for pick up in Billings.

Please contact MonTECH if you have questions about where your requested loan items are located.
