Over the summer Students who are not residing on campus for the summer should remove their property from Princeton University bike racks. Bikes that appear to be not in use are at a higher risk of theft. In addition, bikes in poor condition including but not limited to flat tires, rust, and/or missing parts may be tagged as abandoned and confiscated following the University's abandoned bike policy. The Moving & Storage Agency provides bike pick-up and storage for a fee with optional insurance. In addition, check out some local off-campus storage options. After graduation You wouldn't litter, why would you abandon your bike? If you do not intend to take your bike when you leave campus after graduation, ReCYCLE it at one of the Move-Out donation drop-off locations. Bikes in good condition will be repaired and given to incoming students. Bikes that cannot be repaired will be properly recycled.
