Great news for parents! Target is reviving its well-loved Car Seat Trade-In Program for a limited period this fall. This initiative, which first impressed shoppers last spring, is back from September 10 to 23, and it’s the perfect opportunity if you’re on the lookout for a new car seat.
During this event, most Target locations (excluding smaller-format stores) will accept old car seats for recycling. In return, you’ll receive a 20% off coupon to use on your next car seat purchase, which includes booster seats, car seat bases, and travel systems. The best part? Your old seat doesn’t need to be broken or outdated; any car seat can be brought in for recycling. Whether it’s too cramped for your little one, has seen better days, or is just plain gross from that last road trip, Target is happy to take it off your hands.
The advantages for parents are clear. If your child’s car seat is now too small, doesn’t fit well in your new vehicle, or has become a bit of a disaster zone (thanks to surprise spills), this trade-in program is your ticket to decluttering. And of course, there’s the added bonus of reducing environmental waste.
“After we collected over a million pounds of car seat material for recycling last spring, we’re thrilled to bring this wonderful initiative back,” says Lisa Carter, a spokesperson for Target. “We’re dedicated to simplifying our guests’ lives while helping them tackle household clutter responsibly.”
So, to recap: you can offload that yucky car seat, snag a discount on a fresh new one, and contribute positively to the planet—all in one trip? Count us in!
Mark your calendars for September 10-23 to participate, and remember you have until October 7 to redeem your 20% off coupon. Happy and safe car seat shopping!
