Recalled equipment: what Alabama requires
Alabama does not require a recall check
We read Alabama’s licensing rules in full. They contain no requirement for licensed providers to monitor or document product recalls. We are telling you this even though it means you have less reason to pay us, because a page that invents a rule to sell a subscription is worth nothing to you and would deserve nothing from you.
What the rules do say
We read both chapters in full (81 and 70 pages). The word “recall” appears zero times in either, and there is no Pennsylvania-style “described as hazardous by the CPSC” hook. The only CPSC-linked duty is cribs-only: a CPSIA certificate of compliance kept on file, with the crib carrying a label showing its date of manufacture. Citation landmine: the old 660-5-25 sections were repealed in 2001.
Recalled children’s gear is still dangerous, and a recalled crib in your care is still a liability whether or not a form asks about it. The free screening below works regardless.
Ala. Admin. Code ch. 660-5-26 (centers); ch. 660-5-27 (family and group homes)
