Reporting abandoned scrap bikes

Have you discovered a neglected bicycle that is obviously no longer in use? Then report your observation to us using the contact details provided.

Course description

If you notice a neglected bicycle, a scrap bike or a bicycle that nobody uses any more, you can report it to the Building Department by telephone or email.

In addition, the Building Department, together with the city’s subsidiary P+R Park & Ride GmbH, regularly inspects all roads and pavements within the Mittlerer Ring and removes abandoned and scrap bicycles. P+R Park & Ride GmbH carries out this work in the following steps:

  • Scrap bikes and bikes that are clearly abandoned are marked with a banderole.
  • This band indicates that the bicycle will be removed after four weeks.
  • If, after four weeks, the tag is still intact on the bicycle, P+R Park & Ride GmbH will collect the bicycle and store it for two months. During this time, the owner can still collect the bicycle.

Are you looking for your bicycle, or has your bicycle been removed?

Please get in touch via the contact details provided, either with the Building Department or P+R Park & Ride GmbH. You can also find information about bicycle removal on the P+R Park & Ride website at www.radlramadama.de

Has your bike gone missing and would you like to check whether it has been handed in to the city’s lost property office? Please find out more via the following link: https://stadt.muenchen.de/service/info/fundburo/10338649/

Would you like to dispose of your old bicycle?

The website of the Munich Waste Management Authority (AWM) provides information on bicycle disposal options, the “Halle 2” second-hand goods centre, the city’s recycling centres, bulky waste collection and similar services.
