The UMass Lowell Outdoor Center and Bike Shop is seeking donations of used bikes, ski and snowboard equipment.
Used bikes will be refurbished and sold at the Bike Shop. Proceeds will go to support bicycle related programs, staffing, education and opportunities for the university community.
Our used ski and snowboard program is new and will be developing in the weeks and months to come. We aim to soon offer ski tune service including cleaning, wax and edge as well as a selection of used equipment for sale. Suggestions and feedback about what you might like to see are welcome!
If you have a bike or winter sports equipment that you would like to donate to support our program, please contact Freewheelers@uml.edu at 978-934-6797 or just bring it by the shop during open hours (Mon.-Fri. 1-8 p.m., Sat. 10 a.m.-6 p.m.).
If you live within a half-hour drive, send us a picture of your skis/board/boots and we'll come pick them up!
Incentives: When you donate a Bike or Winter Sports Equipment you can choose from either:
- 20% coupon for anything at the Outdoor Center and Bike Shop
- Full-day Kayak/Canoe/SUP rental or instructional program for 2 people from the UMass Lowell Kayak Center. Contact Kayak_Center@uml.edu to inquire about booking instructional programs.
