What to do with old seat?

Hi All,

A family member gave me the infant seat she used for her grandsons. It's DOM is 01/30/2002. So, does it expire at the end of next year? We will not be having another infant before that time so I am wondering what to do with the seat. I know some places may be leary to accept is as a donation if they do not know the seat's history but I hate to just throw it out as some one may have a use for it before it expires. Does anyone know of a place I can donate it to?

Thanks,
Becky

I wouldn't donate it this close to the expiration date, you have no clue whether the person that gets it will stop using it when it expires. If it were me I would destroy it. Cut the straps, mark "do not use" all over it in permanent marker and cut the cover up, put it in a trash bag and throw it away.
