I don't think it is as easy as Disney's idea of just adding more trash cans. A public bin is only as useful if it isn't full. You need an infrastructure for emptying and maintaining each bin you add. A lot of litter in our city is around full public trash cans as these areas have been identified as being high trash areas, but if they aren't being emptied regularly enough, they become litter magnets and make the problem worse.
Japan has virtually no public trash cans and very little litter. Playground and parks in Japan have no trash bins, so they are never overflowing and you never expect there to be one and it isn't or it is full.
