I've never seen a public trash can large enough to hold an entire bike, but lots of bodies of water that could hold a bike. I've only seen one bike end up in the water (a mountain bike that fell off the back of a sailboat), and it sank immediately, there was no problem making sure it sank.
A commercial dumpster would hold it, but most places around here keep those locked up (either by locking the cover or keeping them behind a locked gate). Probably because they got tired of people dumping personal trash (like bicycles) in them.

There is always somebody that will take them to extract parts to fix/build other bikes (assuming a large enough city, and enough bike users). I've actually purchased a bike from a shop that made bikes from parts. It was a horror, but it shows that there is a life cycle that doesn't end in a river :)
