    Yeah, people generally aren’t like: I see a bin over there but I think the floor is a better place for my empty wrapper!

    It’s a combination of laziness, habit and location of garbage bins.

    Near me there is a street with a couple fast food restaurants and bubble tea. However the public trash bin at the nearest intersection is at the opposite corner to those shops. Instead there’s a newspaper stand that inevitably gets filled with trash every week.

    People want to find an appropriate place for their trash but they don’t want to carry it around with them for long or bring it back with them.
