I confiscated an expired Cosco HBB. Would Dorel want it for testing? It's nasty but I'd be wiling to clean it up and send it into the manufacturer or wherever.

Maybe you can find a car seat recycler in your area. If not, make it even more nasty, cut the straps, write EXPIRED, DO NOT USE, on it. Put it in the bottom of your garbage can, with nasty stuff on top.

Oh yeah I knew to do that. I guess I didn't ask my question correctly. I was gonna just toss it but then I thought maybe the manufacturer would want it? I was just trying to give it a chance at a slightly longer life before I decided to smash it :)

I doubt it. I could see them maybe wanting it it you bought it, and got into a crash, had the police report and pictures, but not just a random seat.

This exactly. Without details of the crash/pictures it doesn't really tell them much.

It's actually my best friends seat that she bought for her oldest son so not really a random seat. But I'll just toss it.
