Rediscover Cycling will gladly accept your bike donation at the Rediscovery Centre once approved in advance by our Rediscover Cycling Programme Manager, Mark Dunn. We only accept bicycles that we are sure we can successfully recondition, and will provide a training experience for our staff in the workshop. To make a donation, please email Mark at bikes@rediscoverycentre.ie with a picture of the bicycle you are donating and he will send you a confirmation email so it can be accepted at the Ecostore.
Some information to help you understand what we are looking for before you email the pictures;
– Adult bikes only, in good condition
– No kids bikes
– No children carrying equipment for bicycles
– No cycling helmets
Note: Once approved, bicycle donations can be accepted at the Rediscovery Centre. If you are not able to deliver your bike we can pick it up but a collection fee will apply.
Rediscover Cycling also works in partnership with Fingal County Council’s Estuary Recycling Centre in Swords, where bicycles are stored for us for reuse and reconditioning. Note: A gate fee may be charged by Fingal County Council to bring a bicycle to this recycling centre.
