Donate a Bike

Donating to Project Life-Cycle

We rely 100% on donated bikes from the community to supply the inventory of bikes we give away each year. We have been very fortunate to have enjoyed an incredibly steady flow of bikes mostly from generous individuals but also from several of the area bike shops, recycling organizations and law enforcement departments. We always have needs for more bikes and would be proud to get your bikes to someone who can put them back into full use! Whether for fun, recreation, exercise, or for transportation to work, school or running errands, we love to see our bikes put to good use and the smiles we see when we give them away are truly priceless!

Here is what we do need and accept:

  • Gently used bikes of any size and quality level (All styles, Mountain, Road, Fat Bikes, Cruisers etc.) Preferably models from 2000 or newer
  • E-Bikes, 3-wheel or Cargo Bikes
  • Tag-a-long bikes and child trailers
  • New helmets and locks with combination / keys
  • Parts and accessories from current model bikes (2000 or newer)

What we do not accept (due to low demand, or liability issues):

  • Older model or badly worn, rusted bikes (If you aren’t sure, stop by during our open volunteer hours. See the calendar in our EVENTS section for open hours.)
  • Scooters, big wheel type trikes or novelty riding toys
  • Motorized scooters, mini-bikes or go-carts
  • Used helmets

Donated items can be dropped off at our Chanhassen location anytime and left near our back entrance (Look for the aluminum ramp!) If you would like a donation receipt, just ask. If we are not present during drop off, use the Contact Us form and we will send one to you.

Where to bring donated bikes and parts:
