Denver - The Park Hill Bike Depot - http://thebikedepot.org/

Each year, The Bike Depot takes in hundreds of bikes from people like you, whips them into shape, and finds them a new home in the community. We'd love to help your old bike make someone very happy. We accept bikes in any condition; parts and accessories too. We are committed to recycling, so if it can't be used - it will be recycled if at all possible.

Mission

The Park Hill Bike Depot supports health and active living by increasing access to bicycles, promoting safe, bike-friendly environments and advocating for policies that promote bicycle access and use.
Programs and Services

The Park Hill Bike Depot aims to improve health, build skills and foster personal development of youth and adults through community-oriented educational and recreational bicycle programs and services, including:
  • Refurbishing gently used, donated bicycles
  • Redirecting donated bicycles for use in community programs
  • Providing bike safety education and bike riding instruction programs
  • Offering community Earn-A-Bike programs for Park Hill and surrounding communities
Area residents of all ages and abilities who are in need of a bike and can't otherwise afford one can earn a bike at The Bike Depot by completing the following:
  • Attend a basic bike safety and maintenance class
  • Complete community service time through various activities
  • Choose a bike and complete basic adjustments and repairs.
  • Get fitted for and receive a bicycle helmet
