Personal wheels (PW) (non-medical transportation devices like bicycles, scooters, skateboards, etc.) with motors must be UL-certified and registered with MIT Parking and Transportation office. PWs cannot be charged or stored in the Warehouse ground floor bike room. Don’t leave a PW or battery unattended while charging, and don’t charge any PW or battery overnight. Check the PW or battery regularly for overheating, and stop charging immediately if the PW or battery is hot to the touch.
PWs without motors can be registered and stored in your room OR the ground floor bike room.
In no case can PWs be ridden within the Warehouse, left in hallways or charged, if applicable, without your being home.
Complete information on the Institute policies for the safe operation and storage of PWs can be found here.
