I live on the coast and people leave their garbage everywhere and while everyone vilifies the poor and the homeless, it is the poor and the homeless who spend the most time picking up the bottles and cans left on the beach and returning them to Safeway.
i usually bag up all the cans in my posseion (once a month) to put on the curb on a Sat. morning. I don't put cans in my recycle bin, nor in the yellow bin.

This is why I put my returnable empties in a separate box next to the recycling. Most people, however, are asshats.
I feel you! I teach preschool and collect cans. Make too much money for any assistance.
