FREE BICYCLE RECYCLE DAY
Recycle any bicycles, minibikes and mopeds (working or non-working) for free. Bring any type or size of unwanted, old or new bicycle and it will be reused again (mountain, road, BMX, cruiser). The goal is to keep them from being thrown out when they can be reused.
For those unable to drop off bicycles a volunteer can pick them up. Contact Kim at 978-979-0378 to make arrangements
