Partner with Re-Cycle
Collect bikes. Change lives in Africa.
Turn your shop, business or community space into a Re-Cycle drop-off point, or host a one-off pop-up collection. It’s free, it’s flexible, and we support you every step of the way.
What’s in it for you?
Hosting a collection is good for your community, good for your brand, and good for business.
Drive Foot Traffic
A different crowd comes through your door. Cyclists and eco-conscious residents dropping off a bike step straight into your premises, introducing your business to new people and creating natural opportunities to sell, serve and connect.
Increased Marketing
Your business is proudly promoted across our network, website and social media channels as a valued charity partner, with poster templates and digital materials to promote your own drop-off point.
Enhanced CSR
Align your brand with a powerful circular-economy mission. Every bike you collect keeps quality components and frames out of landfill, giving your customers and community a visible, practical way to see your values in action.
Change Lives
The bikes you collect are carefully prepared and shipped to our trusted partners in rural Africa, where they provide affordable, life-changing transport to reach education, healthcare and economic opportunities.
“Re-Cycle is a fabulous organisation & at Gladwells Pet & Country Stores we are proud to be part of the scheme. This is a great way to create jobs in Africa as well as provide transport for those that need it. And all of that whilst supporting sustainability locally!
Feedback from customers is always great; participants are always impressed with the simplicity of the scheme & we look forward to continuing to work with Re-Cycle for years to come.”
– David Fox
Regional Manager at Gladwells Pet & Country Stores
