2025 Summer Bicycle Roundup

F&S and the Parking Department identify and collect unwanted bicycles left on campus at the beginning of the summer.

All bikes remaining on university property will be tagged this week with an orange sticker that reads, “Remove this tag by 6/30, or your bicycle will be removed.” Any bicycle still displaying the sticker after that date will be impounded. 

If you presently have a bike in a campus rack, shelter, or parking location, please remember to remove this sticker to ensure your bike is designated as active. Individuals who don’t take this action and want to reclaim their bicycles later this year will be charged a $40 fee. All recovered bicycles must also be registered before being returned. 

Donate Your Bike!

Last year, almost 250 bicycles were retrieved during the annual roundup and stored as part of the Bike at Illinois reclaiming and donation process. Help reduce the roundup and preserve campus resources by donating your bike!

If you no longer need your bicycle, consider donating it to the Campus Bike Center (51 E. Gregory Drive, Champaign) or the Bike Project of Urbana-Champaign (202 S. Broadway Avenue, room 24). No appointment is required. Donations are tax-deductible, and bikes will be refurbished or recycled, with as many parts reused as possible.
