Today is Earth Day, the day we love our planet and reduce, reuse, and recycle without abandon. To celebrate, we thought we’d share our list of carseat recycling centers found around the country. This way, we can keep carseats out of landfills when we can and put them to better use after they’ve been crashed or aged out.

Did you know that carseat companies recycle too? Dorel, parent company of Cosco, Safety 1st, Eddie Bauer, and Maxi-Cosi, has a zero-landfill manufacturing facility in Columbus, IN. Clek offers a recycling program for their carseats after you are done with your Clek seat. And many companies recycle the leftover plastics from the manufacturing process. So bit by bit we’re making progress for the world our kids will inherit.
And I’ll also highlight this program, since it’s nationwide. If your local area doesn’t have a carseat recycling program, you can ship it to BabyEarth in Texas.

As another resource, this site seems to have a pretty comprehensive updated list of carseat recycling programs in the US:
