Drop off those second-hand car seats!

NeighbourLink is pleased to be partnering with Kidseat Recyclers! We are now considered an official Drop-off Location for those who want to recycle and potentially donate their second-hand car seats.

Seats that pass inspection will be redistributed to low-income Calgarians who request free car seats via NeighbourLink's HelpLine (403-209-1930). Those that do not meet legal standards will be recycled via Kidseat Recyclers for a $7 recycling fee.

In order to be re-used, donated car seats must:

• be clean and in good condition
• have no history of damage
• have a Canadian manufacturer's label
• not expire within two years

NeighbourLink’s address is 3751-21 St. NE and our drop-off hours are between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. Monday to Thursday and 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. on Friday. We are closed from noon-1 for lunch. Check out the NeighbourLink Donation Guide to see what other gently-used items you can donate to your neighbours in need.

In 2010 NeighbourLink redistributed nearly 60 car seats. Let’s make it more this year, as well as keep thousands of unusable seats out of our landfills!
