The best thing to do with an expired car seat? Well, my first choice is to save it for the Babies 'R Us Trade-In event, where BRU will take your expired, old, or broken baby gear items and in return give you 25 percent off the purchase of a new baby gear item. BRU will also destroy expired seats for you. But if you don't need to trade-in for anything, or just want the seat gone, cutting the straps is a good idea. Here is our out-of-date Britax Roundabout, straps cut and awaiting further demolition.

I have more pictures of the expired car seat, and it's long-expired friend, up on my flickr photostream, including a couple pictures on where to find DOMs.
