Exploring Disney World means taking thousands and thousands of steps. This can be tough, especially when it comes to toddlers. Therefore many parents put their kids in strollers as they explore this huge park.
Some people bring it from home while others rent a stroller for them. However, people are not allowed to bring any sort of stroller. Disney World stroller rentals have some rules that can be followed inside the parks.
Disney world strictly observes these rules. Any stroller that does not comply with those regulations is banned from entering Disney premises. Therefore, parents should plan beforehand which sort of stroller they will buy or rent.
This will help parents to shun chances of getting into any type of problem related to strollers at the eleventh hour. There are several websites whose strollers are in accordance with the updated Disney stroller rules.

DISNEY WORLD STROLLER RULES
Recently, Disney revised its stroller rules/guideline on May 1, 2019. There has been confusion amongst parents since then. We will unwind these rules and clear out all the confusion prevailing.
Stroller Size
Current Disney world stroller rules specify that a stroller’s length should not exceed 52 inches (132cm). Similarly, the width of the stroller should not exceed 31 inches (79 cm). Previously, the maximum length allowed was 36 inches.
You can find many strollers in the market that fit these measurements. In fact, several jogging strollers including double strollers also come within these measurements.
The rationale behind imposing a limitation on the length and width of strollers inside the premises of parks is to avoid crowding. This will prevent the flow of tourists from stopping and let them enjoy their tour to the fullest.
It is important to note that these measurements apply to both Walt Disney World and Disneyland. These parks have certain locations where you can measure your stroller.
However, it’s suggested to measure the length and width of the stroller at home. This gives parents a chance to make an alternate arrangement if needed.
Here is a list of some popular strollers whose size is in line with Disney’s official rules regarding strollers.
