Only in Mississauga I find this disgusting behaviour.

Why are people just openly littering. It never used to be like this. What happened ?

Because they are lazy and have cups in their car left over from either earlier in the day or previous days, and since theres no garbage there they toss them out.

The argument some people have here, "they used to have garbages, but have removed them, so litter away! " seeminlgy justifying this behvaiour in an odd pro-litter protest is crazy.

Almost every other fast-food restaurant with take out windows has 0 garbage bins, but you don't see their trash at the order kiosk.

Oh, so these are repeat customers deciding to toss their trash at the very place they got it from last time? Insult to injury!

And yeah, I've never seen garbage bins at a drive thru. Throw your shit away when you get home, people!

Nope, never seen trash in the drive thru, either.

A lot of ours have them as you pull up to drive through so you can make room for your order. This seems like manager didn't want to pay for another worker to monitor outside bins, so now the manager is forced to have a person cleanup each shift.
