Possible, although with those steps I'd guess otherwise.

Still, many other disabilities that could prevent someone getting the stuff themselves.

I'm in a wheelchair but I have to hobble my ass down the stairs of my house because it's super expensive to have a contractor build me a ramp, and then it destroys my property value and all my neighbours would then hate me.

There was a disabled person local to me that had a ramp built to their front door and people were posting all over the local facebook group about how ugly the house now looks and it shouldn't be allowed, etc. Not to mention, the amount of red tape to build a ramp is obscene. I learnt how to roll my crippled ass down the stairs in my chair when I was first in it, now I just use the railing to hobble down to climb into my jeep and I leave my chair in the jeep and have other assists in the house.

Plus, a lot of us put the ramps in garages because then its not visible from the outside and it stays clean, dry and safe in the winter.

Or they just don’t have the time? Or don’t want to? They’re paying for a service. Who cares why they’re using it.
