North Dakota Child Passenger Safety  Provides detailed information on car seat education.

Has your car seat expired, been recalled and requires destruction, or been involved in a motor vehicle crash? If it's time to retire that car seat, use these tips below:

  1. Use scissors to cut off the fabric, foam padding, and harness straps from the seat.
  2. Remove the car seat cover and any padding underneath it.
  3. Discard the fabric, foam padding, straps, and mixed metal/plastic pieces and small plastic pieces. Dispose of these pieces separately from plastic shell, to ensure it doesn't get used again.
  4. Mark the plastic as expired or unsafe.

Our local child passenger safety organization may offer periodic car-seat roundup and recycling programs. Watch for special events in the Bismarck/Mandan area!

*Please DO NOT try to donate or sell a used car seat. The idea that any seat is better than nothing is incorrect. The manufacturers set limits on their seats to ensure safety and quality, as materials break down over time and technology advances. If the manufacturer can no longer guarantee a seat will be effective in saving a child's life, please believe them.
