BIKE DONATIONS
Our Sydney Warehouse is currently only accepting bikes in
good working condition.
At this time we are unable to accept any bike parts, clothing, helmets or any other cycling related items. We have a huge backlog of donated bikes, which is fantastic, but we simply don’t have the manpower at the moment to service bikes that require too much work.
If you are unsure if your bikes is suitable please email a photo to [email protected] . A guide on what makes a great bike to donate, is to understand that our bikes are being gifted to those most in need. We want to proud of the bike standard we supply and we definitely want the recipient to be proud to receive it. So, please be proud to donate! A little bit of rust, deflated tyres and a broken chain is absolutely fine!
Thank you for your understanding.
Volunteer with us
We’re always on the lookout for skilled, short and long-term volunteers for our bike workshop. No experience is necessary, however it’s always welcomed! If you would like to volunteer at our Sydney warehouse, please contact Sara Roe to register your interest.
Note: If you have access to a truck/ute and are able to volunteer to collect bikes from people who are unable to deliver to us, then please contact Sara Roe. We often have requests for pick ups but currently don’t have anyone able to collect. All volunteers need to complete an application form. Click here to download the form.
