MINNEAPOLIS — Help the planet while helping yourself to a new car seat on the cheap as Target is planning its annual trade-in program.
Anyone who wishes to trade in their old car seats can bring them to their local Target store from April 14-17 and get 20% off a new car seat, base, travel system, stroller or other select baby gear like high chairs, swings, rockers, bouncers and other items.
Since the program started in 2016, Target said it has recycled more than 2.6 million seats to date. Those approximately 39 million pounds of materials were then donated to retailer partners to produce new products like pallets, plastic buckets and other construction materials.
Target accepts infant car seats, convertible car seats, car seat bases, harness or booster car seats and car seats deemed expired or damaged. Those items can be dropped off in designated boxes near Guest Services.
Visit Target's website to learn more about the program and to see if your store is participating.
