Donations

We accept any bike. This is to ensure that the bikes are properly recycled and not sent to landfill. Due to our limited capacity and to keep things as green as possible, we ask you to bring the bike to us.

We will have a drop-in facility and will encourage people to bring the bikes to us. If you cannot deliver your old bike, we may be able to collect.

Please contact us for further information...
