Local Bicycle Collections

We offer local bike collections near our warehouse in Wormingford, Essex. If you can drop off your bikes, that’s always best, saving us time, fuel and volunteer resources so we can send more bikes to Africa.

As a small charity, our volunteer drivers group collections by area to keep costs down. Once you submit a request, we’ll contact you when we’re next in your area. This can take a few weeks, depending on demand and volunteer availability.

Use the postcode checker below to see if your address is eligible, then complete the form to request a collection.

What Bikes do We Accept?

We’re looking for bikes that still have life left in them and can be repaired and put to good use in Africa. We want every bike we send to be reliable, safe and ready to make a difference.

Ideally, bikes should have less than 25% rust on the frame.

Flat tyres, rusty chains and minor repairs are absolutely fine, as these parts can be replaced.

We’re unable to accept bikes with heavily rusted frames or damage that makes them beyond repair.

Adult Mountain Bikes & Hybrids

Strong and robust, these are ideal for the rough, unmade roads common in rural Africa.

City & Commuter Bikes

Practical, low-maintenance bikes (often with 3-speed hubs, mudguards, and parcel carriers) that are perfect for everyday use.

Road Bikes

Racing and touring cycles with drop handlebars. While less suitable for rough terrain, they work well in urban projects with tarmac roads. Touring bikes are especially valued for their sturdiness and load-carrying ability.

Children’s Bikes (12” to 24” wheels)

Small-wheeled bikes are in high demand by our partners. Please note we do not accept toy-sized bikes.

Large Volume Donations

Do you have a significant number of bikes to donate?

We regularly work with universities, train stations, businesses, schools, and community groups to collect large quantities of unwanted bicycles.

If you have multiple bikes or a bulk donation, we’d love to hear from you. Please get in touch so we can discuss the best way to collect them and give them a second life.
