Walmart is offering $30 gift cards for those who participate in their car seat recycling program. Each household will be limited to two gift cards.
The retailer will be accepting car seats from Sept. 16 through Sept. 30 at participating locations.
This is Walmart’s first-ever car seat recycling event and the company hopes to “recycle every component of the car seats.”
