PLACER COUNTY, Calif. — In an effort to help deter bears and other wildlife from the smell of extra food waste, two agencies in Placer County are providing free places to throw away food that might have gone bad during the PG&E outage earlier this week.
The drop-off locations are a joint effort between Placer County Environmental Utilities and Recology Auburn Placer.
The food can come in its original packaging or containers. The following locations will have free food waste disposal though Monday, Oct. 14:
- Recology Auburn Placer
12305 Shale Ridge Rd.
8 a.m. - 5 p.m. - Meadow Vista
