Similar here just north of SF, I find it to be a bit of a community psychology thing. I found it the same when I lived in Japan (though wherever you go there are always those few houses, or that one park...) It's not official but a lot of us take trash bags out on our walks and hikes too. I like to save up the really out of reach stuff for new years day. It's a nice way to start the year and kinda fun to go MacGyver on those really long-neglected beer bottles under blackberry bushes. Close in feel to geocaching...
