In an effort to revamp our shop, if you have extra or are getting rid of Slat Wall, we would love to take it off your hands.  Please contact us.

 

Elastomeric Roof Coating

E-mail Print PDF

 

The Community Bike Shop has a flat black roof, which means the swamp cooler is just sucking the hot air off the roof and shooting it down into the shop with the added bonus of humidity.  We are sweating to death!

If we can paint the roof white, it will significantly reduce how hot the roof gets and lower the temperature inside.  So if you have any of the white elastomeric roof coating material that you are willing to donate, please let us know.

 

 

LCD Monitors

We could use:

  • LCD / flatscreen computer Monitors

Bikes & Parts

E-mail Print PDF

As part of our on going Bicycle Recycling project we are in constant need of volunteer mechanics, bicycles (especially childrens bicycles), and bicycle parts of all types. Donated bikes are also eligible as a tax write-off.

To donate a bike or parts, bring them down to the community bike shop during the open shop hours.

Your donated bike will be refurbished by volunteer mechanics for release back into the community either as a gift to a charitable cause or sold for a nominal fee.

 

Old T-Shirts

We cut old t-shirts into smaller pieces and use them as shop rags.  So if you (or someone you love) has an old t-shirt that absolutely needs to go, give them a final wash a bring them down to the Community Bike Shop.

 

Tooth brushes

This may seem like a strange think to donate, but we use old tooth brushes to clean bike parts and chains.

 


 

In case you are wondering, the cleaner we use can kill just about every germ in the book.
