Donate a bike, make a difference
Your old bike may have been collecting dust in the garage or occupying a corner of your shed, but by donating it to Common Wheel, you're breathing new life into it. Even if it's missing wheels, has a rusted frame, or requires more than just a little TLC, rest assured that our skilled team will find a purpose for it. If it can't be revived as a whole, we will salvage its components and give them a second chance to play a vital role in our projects.
Here's how your donation will support those in your community:
Stock our Build Your Own Bike Course
Your donated bikes serve as materials for our Build Your Own Bike courses for those recovering and managing mental illness.
Support our Reconditioning Efforts
For bikes that are salvageable with a little elbow grease and mechanical finesse, our team takes on the challenge of reconditioning and selling them. Your donation plays a pivotal role in expanding access to affordable, reliable transportation options and promoting sustainable living.
An eco-friendly sustainable cycle
Rather than allowing old bikes and parts to go to waste, your contributions help us reduce environmental impact, and foster a culture of sustainable travel.
