In Norway you get a small amount of money for recycling bottles/cans. They're often collected by poor people, homeless etc. A lot of our trash cans has these holders around them so people don't have to search through the trash to collect them

Naw, that's awesome, we don't have the holders in Germany but we also do have the "Pfand" system which gives like 25cents for cans and plastic bottles and 8 for glass and hard plastic

Might also add that a lot of times people will just place them on the ring you can see around the trash can if there's no holders, or on top of the can if it's a different design.

Norway seems to do a lot of stuff right.
