From Sunday, April 16, 2023, through Saturday, April 29, 2023, guests will have the opportunity to recycle an old, expired or damaged car seat and redeem a coupon on their Target app or Target.com/circle for 20% off one car seat, stroller or select baby gear.

The coupon can be redeemed through May 13, 2023. Materials from the old car seats will be recycled by Target’s partner, Waste Management.

Here’s how it works:

  • Drop off: Bring an old car seat or base to a nearby Target and drop it in the designated box inside the store.
  • Scan: Open your Target App to scan the code on the box. Talk to a Team Member in Guest Services if you need help.
  • Find: Open your Wallet in the Target App to find your coupon + more contactless savings.
  • Save: Click the red “+” to save the offer and place your order online, or scan your barcode at the register.

The store says it will accept damaged or expired car seats. Target accepts convertible car seats, infant car seats, car seat bases, and harness and booster seats.

Target introduced its first car seat trade-in program in April 2016. Since then, 2.19 million car seats–or 32.9 million pounds of car seat material — have been recycled.
