We're happy to accept donated bikes in any condition, from children’s bikes upwards.
WE CAN'T COLLECT BIKES UNFORTUNATELY.
If you can bring bikes direct to our refurbishing workshop in Anglia Square that's really helpful. Our unit is next door to 'Savers' shop in the square, or if you are coming by car see below for some pictures to help you find the parking / unloading bay at the back of our unit. We are normally there 10am to 5pm Tuesday to Thursday, but it's best to phone beforehand just to double check we're in - 01603 764343 - or email volunteer@bicyclelinks.org.uk
If Anglia Square is not convenient you can bring donations to our shop in King Street any time that we're open - just turn up, there's no need to phone.
We ask for whole bikes (not just frames or wheels), but don’t worry if a bike is in poor condition or missing one or two parts, we’ll still make good use of it. We can’t use of any of the following unfortunately, so please find another way to dispose of them (Facebook, Gumtree, Freecycle): car racks, turbo trainers, clothing, shoes, small parts, child seats, used helmets or other cycling-associated gear. Just bikes!
Turn left at this part of the one-way system heading south from Magpie Road, signed for 'Epic Studios'
Then turn right under the old multi-storey car park, just before joining Magdalen Street
Look out for the yellow and black pillars! Park up and knock on our doors or give us a call on 01603 764343
Donated bikes are refurbished by staff, trainees or volunteers, and then either used in our social projects or sold in our shop to cover our overheads. Bicycles that we can't use because they are seized or broken are stripped down for parts, which can then be used on other bikes. We always re-use as much as possible, and what we don't use goes to metal recycling.
