Target’s popular car seat trade-in event is back again, just in time for spring.
The promotion began on Sunday, April 27, and will run through Saturday, May 10.
Customers can drop off old car seats at nearby stores and get a 20% off Target Circle bonus coupon for a new car seat. They’ll have until May 24 to redeem the deal, and it’s valid for two uses.
According to the company, the retailer recycles the turned-in car seats to create other new products, such as construction materials. Since the program’s inception in 2016, Target says it has recycled over three million car seats.
