Donating to re-Cycles

All the bikes and parts that we sell have been donated to us. We are happy to accept the following:

  • Bikes in any condition – none are turned away. A bike that is not fixable gets stripped of any useable parts, and all the metal remains get sent to local metal recyclers.
  • Any useable parts, like wheels, tires, seats, even tools.
  • Old toothbrushes; no really, we do want them, as they are great for cleaning parts!

We do not accept:

  • Old cotton sheets, towels, clothing, etc. to be used as rags.
  • Old helmets, child seats
  • Camelbaks and other water storage devices and bottles. These are all personal or safety items that should not be reused, and we won’t re-sell them.

Please bring in donations during our open hours. If you have a lot of bikes to drop off, whether from a personal collection of if you’re with a property management company, please email us: questions@re-cycles.ca, and we’ll see if one of our staff can meet you off-hours and receive the bikes.

Please do not leave bikes at our door when we are not open, as there’s a good chance they’ll get stolen or picked apart. Thanks!

We regret that we currently cannot come and pick up your donation.
