ELIMINATING THE IDEA OF WASTE®

Recycling of car seats offered by metro-area stores

TerraCycle Target Include USA
Between Sept. 1 and 11, 56 Target stores across Minnesota are hosting a car seat collection program to help residents reduce household clutter without sending waste to landfills. All car seats collected through this program will be recycled through TerraCycle so that each component will see a second life. People should bring their car seats to their participating Target store and look for a car seat collection box in the front of the store or in the baby/kids section. When a consumer turns in a used car seat, he or she will receive a coupon for 20 percent off the purchase of a new one. After the recycling program ends, TerraCycle will separate the different components of the car seats (cloth elements, plastics, metals, etc.) and process them for use in other products. Included area Target stores in Burnsville, Chanhassen, Chaska, Eden Prairie, Minnetonka, Savage and Shakopee.
