Another type of replate station?

A fellow out in Chicago just emailed us to share his concept for using newspaper dispensers as a place to replate your leftovers. It’s a great idea, especially in cities that don’t have ledges or hoods on their trash cans. Check it out here.

Yes, it’s a good idea, BUT I’ve been following this project and keeping an eye out around Savannah, GA, where I have seen some food put out, including a take-out box left in an empty newspaper box. It’s remained untouched since I noticed it there, and I did check that there was food in it. It doesn’t really seem like the homeless think to look there, believe it or not. On the other hand, all food left on top of newspaper boxes just like it has disappeared.
