Give Your Preloved Bike a Second Life.
We know this bike meant something to you. Maybe it got you through uni, took the kids to school, or was your weekend escape. Whatever its story, we’re the right hands to make sure it keeps going.
Revolve ReCYCLING accepts preloved bikes, e-bikes, and scooters in any condition — no matter how long they’ve been sitting in the shed.

Your Bike Gets a Second Life.
Guaranteed.

Assessment: Every donated bike goes through a proper assessment at our Alexandria workshop.

Charitable donations to the Foundation’s goals and work are welcome, as are discussions about partnerships aimed at getting more bikes out to more deserving kids.
Please note: The Revolve ReCYCLING Foundation is an independent charity. Events, services and partnerships mentioned elsewhere on this website may relate to Revolve ReCYCLING Pty Ltd, a separate social enterprise part
Where Some Bikes End Up
Revolve ReCYCLING runs the Wheels for Kids programme — built on one simple idea: every child has the right to a bike.
Through the programme, we donate professionally assessed and rebuilt bikes to children across Australia who wouldn’t otherwise have access to one. Over 1,500 bikes have been delivered to kids in need so far.
When you donate your bike, you’re not just clearing out the shed. You’re giving a child their first taste of independence, a way to get to school, and something that’s genuinely theirs.
Wheels for Kids is a community programme run by Revolve ReCYCLING.
Questions About Donating
Do you accept bikes in any condition?
Yes. We accept preloved bikes in any condition — working, non-working, incomplete, or just very old. Our mechanics assess everything that comes through. If it can be rebuilt, it will be. If not, every part is recycled responsibly.
Is there a cost to donate?
Drop-off at our Alexandria workshop and at 99 Bikes stores across Sydney is free. If you’d like us to collect from your door, a small collection fee applies by bike type — see the fee guide in the Book a Collection tab above.
What happens to my bike after I donate it?
Every donated bike is assessed at our Alexandria workshop. Bikes in good condition are rebuilt by our mechanics and either sold to local riders or donated to children through our Wheels for Kids programme. Bikes beyond repair are carefully disassembled — usable parts go into other builds and the rest is recycled.
What types of bikes do you accept?
We accept all types of pedal bikes — road, mountain, hybrid, kids’, BMX, folding, and vintage frames. We also collect e-bikes and scooters, which are recycled rather than rebuilt due to battery safety requirements.
How long does a home collection take?
Collections can take up to four weeks from the time you book. We’ll confirm your pick-up time by email — check your spam folder if you don’t hear from us.
Can I donate on behalf of a business or organisation?
Yes. We work with councils, businesses, schools, and community groups to manage large-scale donations and collection events. Email Guido at guido@revolverecycling.net to get started.
