RECYCLE YOUR STROLLER
Babesta, Tribecan Jenn Cattaui’s baby gear store on Warren, has a new Tuesdays trade-in program where you can register your gently used strollers and gear online and then drop them off. The amount can be taken right away in a Babesta gift certificate or you can get a direct payout upon the sale of the item in the marketplace. They are partnering with a company called RebelStork, which does the assessment and the resale. See more info here.
