Bicycle repair pickup and return.
I can take your bike to the repair shop when you can’t ride it there.
A bicycle needing repair may not be ready to ride to the shop. I can check whether it will fit inside the SUV for an agreed collection. Send the bike’s size, weight and a photo, including any basket, rack or attachment that changes the transport shape.
Ask about this pickupBefore the pickup.
Please include:
- A photo, dimensions and approximate weight
- The repair booking and receiving hours
- Any wheel removal or other preparation arranged in advance
It needs to fit inside my SUV and be safe for me to carry on my own. A few photos, the measurements and a note about any stairs help me plan the pickup.
Check the bike’s fit before we set a time.
The bicycle must fit inside the vehicle; don’t assume an exterior bike rack is available. If the shop needs to prepare the bike or remove a part for transport, agree on that before collection. A later return is a separate leg that we can plan once the repair is ready.
A few things to know.
Can you take any bicycle?
Fit and one-person handling need to be confirmed for the specific bike. Send its size and any accessories before booking.
Will you repair or dismantle it?
I provide transport. Repairs and any preparation needed for vehicle fit should be arranged with the shop.
Can you collect an e-bike?
Send its weight, dimensions and transport requirements first. I’ll check suitability before accepting the request.

Back to your pickup detailsHow much will it cost?
It depends on the drive, what you’re picking up, and how much lifting is involved. I’ll give you a price before you decide. Let me know about stairs or a tight pickup window.
Can you pick up today?
Same-day pickups depend on my availability and the seller’s pickup window. A little notice helps me fit you in. Your pickup is confirmed once you and I have agreed on a time and price.
Do I pay the seller directly?
Yes. Pay the seller for the item and let them know Porchbound will pick it up. You’ll pay me separately for the delivery, at the agreed price.
Can you pick up my item?
Send a photo or listing and rough measurements, and I’ll check whether I can carry it safely and fit it in the car. I work on my own, so I can’t take anything that needs two people to lift. Mention any stairs at either end, too.
