I haul my garbage home in my backpack like a good little global citizen but the lack of trash cans in San Francisco is crazy https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/art

  I feel like there are plenty personally. I usually don't have to walk more than a block or two to find one. That article is from 20 years ago by the way

    > I usually don't have to walk more than a block or two to find one. That is not the situation in most of the city, whether it be "nice" parts or "nasty" parts. Restaurant districts tend to have more trash cans than anywhere else, but the presence of a restaurant district is no guarantee of good trash can coverage. Source: I've walked around so much of San Francisco in my ~fifteen years here. In the places I frequent that have reasonable trash can coverage, I've found that trash cans are very slowly disappearing and never coming back. Maybe they get fucked up beyond usefulness and don't get replaced? I really have no idea.
