Since the program's start in 2016, more than three million car seats and 49 million pounds of materials have been recycled.
WASHINGTON — Target's popular car seat trade-in event is back for spring 2025.
Those who trade-in an old car seat or base will get a 20% discount for a new car seat, stroller or select baby gear.
The trade-in program returns Sunday, April 27 and runs through Saturday, May 10.
After dropping off an old car seat in the designated box inside a Target store, customers will scan a QR code to get their Target Circle Bonus.
Customers will then have until May 24 to redeem their 20% off discount, which can be used twice, according to Target's website.
Old car seat materials are recycled to create pallets, plastic buckets, steel beams, carpet padding, and even select Brightroom products sold at Target.
The car seat trade-in event is held twice a year and is part of Target's goal of zero waste to landfills by 2030.
Since the program's inception in 2016, more than three million car seats and 49 million pounds of car seat materials have been recycled, according to Target.
Drop-off bins for the unwanted car seats will be placed near guest services inside participating Target stores. Customers can then scan signs placed near the drop-off boxes to redeem their coupons.
The 20% off bonus can be used toward a new car seat, car seat base, travel system, stroller or select baby home gear including playards, high chairs, swings, rockers, bouncers, walkers, entertainers and jumpers, Target said.
All stores with the exception of select small format stores will be taking part in the recycling event, but Target recommends to contact your local store for more information.
Target will be accepting all kinds of car seats such as infant car seats, convertible car seats, car seat bases, booster car seats, as well as car seats that are expired or damaged.
