Cleanliness

Japan has to be one of the cleanest large cities I've ever seen. Nobody ever seems to litter yet garbage disposal bins such as above are hard to come by. There are no garbage cans at street corners and the only ones seem to be next to a select number of vending machines and even those are usually just for cans and bottles. We have a joke going on that when we buy a bottle of water we'll basically be stuck carrying it for the next hour. So I guess I'm confused as to why the city can be so clean when it's so hard to dispose of ones trash.
