Old car seats are kind of a pain to get rid of (since standard donation centers won't take them), but for the first time ever, Meijer's Supercenter locations are offering a car seat trade-in event from Oct. 27 - Nov. 9, 2024. And you actually get something in return.
During the 2-week event, you can bring in any used car seat or stroller — even if it's damaged or expired — and Meijer will properly recycle it. In return, you'll get a 25% off coupon you can use on a brand new baby item at Meijer (there are some exclusions, which we lay out below).
The Meijer coupon you get is an even better value than the 20% off coupon you get during Target's Car Seat Trade-In event. And if you combine your savings with Meijer coupons and deals from the Meijer weekly ad, you could save even more.

Meijer Car Seat Trade-In is a first-ever event that gives you a 25% off coupon when you donate a used car seat or stroller.
This is the first time that Meijer is hosting this event, as confirmed in their Oct. 22 press release.
In exchange for donating a car seat or stroller, you'll receive an mPerks coupon good for 25% off TWO future purchases of select baby items at Meijer until Nov. 23, 2024. The list of eligible items includes car seats, strollers, bassinets, and a few more items listed at the end of this post.
The Meijer Car Seat Trade-In event is happening Oct. 27 - Nov. 9, 2024.
You'll have a 14-day window to bring in your used car seat or stroller to any Meijer Supercenter location. Look for the drop-off boxes located near the Customer Service area at the front of your store.
A sign on the donation box will include an offer code — just input this code into your mPerks account to claim your 25% off coupon.
KCL TIP: The trade-in event is only offered at Meijer Supercenter locations, not Meijer Express stores, Meijer Neighborhood Markets, or regular Meijer grocery stores.
Your first step is to join mPerks (if you're not a member already).
That's because you'll need a valid mPerks rewards account in order to claim your 25% off coupon, so make sure you sign up before you drop off your donation. Having a rewards account is also how you claim sale prices, and it's a must for couponing at Meijer.
Drop off your old item, then enter the promo code from the donation box to get your coupon.
They won't hand you a paper coupon when you drop off your donation — you're going to need to do just a little legwork to claim your 25% off coupon digitally.
Just enter the code you see on the donation box into mPerks, and the 25% off coupon will be loaded to your account. It's valid on two purchases of select baby gear from Oct. 27 - Nov. 23, 2024, and you can use it online or in store.
Use your 25% off coupon on a new car seat, stroller, or other select baby gear — online or in store.
There's a select list of products you can apply your 25% off coupon to, and it's limited to a short list of baby items available at Meijer Supercenters or on Meijer.com. Keep in mind that you won't be able to apply your discount to clearance items.
