Donations
Bikes
Drop off at the shop: We currently take bikes when we are open for Volunteer Night or Open Shop. Our shop can be accessed by entering at the corner of Thomas Blvd. and N. Lexington Ave.
Drop off at Construction Junction: Construction Junction has generously placed bins for Free Ride donations in their facility. Simply drop off your bike related donation at the Construction Junction drop off and they will get it to us. CJ’s hours can be found here.
Pickups for large donations: If you have a large number (for example, 10+) of bikes that you would like to be picked up, contact us at info@freeridepgh.org and we may be able to arrange something. We are all volunteer run, and at this time we cannot do pickups for small numbers of bikes.
We Accept:
- all working adult & kids bikes
- road, mountain, hybrid, gravel bikes, balance bikes, unicycles, and recumbents!
- bikes that need some sort of mechanical repair
- this includes non-rideable bikes that we can deconstruct for parts or educational purposes!
- bicycle parts
- wheels, chains, pedals, derailleurs, seats, brakes, stems, seat posts, forks, etc.
- accessories
- water bottles, mirrors, jerseys, trailers, etc.
- bike shop supports
- tools, old towels, rags, cleaning supplies, bike stands, etc.
*Keeping all the parts together is so helpful to being able to use the component, accessory and bike
*Adding a note of any known issues or missing parts is appreciated.
