    They don’t have them because they were removed after the Tokyo Metro nerve gas attack in 1995 as a precaution against future terrorist attacks. It’s a pretty common response to terror attacks, France did it after the 1995 GIA bombings and the UK did it after the 1993 Bishopgate bombing by the Provisional IRA.

      Wait, do you mean to tell me they don’t have public trash bins in France or the UK either? Or did they bring them back after a while?

        They brought them back after a while. Japan has started bringing trash cans back in cities slowly too.
