Donate

Donating unused bikes and parts to EBC is a great way to support our work and to clear out your garage or basement at the same time.

Bikes that are in good working order will be checked by BikeWorks volunteers and adjusted as needed before being re-sold at affordable prices as part of our low-cost bicycle program.

Parts and tires that are in good condition will be added to our substantial stock of second-hand parts that are available at absurdly low prices (sometimes even free!) at BikeWorks.

If you’re not sure if the bikes or parts you have are reusable, feel free to drop them off anyway. BikeWorks volunteers will check them out and make use of anything that we can. Any bikes, parts or tires that cannot be reused will be recycled on site rather than entering the waste stream.

Please DO NOT leave your donations of bikes, parts or tires outside the gate.

Please note that EBC does not have a pick-up service, cannot offer tax deductible receipts for donated bicycles or parts, and does not trade repaired bikes for donations.
