Could it be that there is a water delivery system like the old milk delivery man in the old days? (especially if the bottles are new and full).
Or could it be a recycle program (if the bottles are empty)? The trash/recycle man will be coming to pick them up.
In Thailand, some houses had a water container in front of their house for drinking and cleaning in the olden days for people at home or travelers going by the house.
Some containers were low to the ground and used for feet washing, because a lot of people did not wear shoes in the past. They just put their feet in there before stepping into the house.
Interesting question!

I have, for certain. If you have always drunk your water this way, you probably would not see any difference........you would just look and feel better than those who do not. If you just began drinking the water, you may not have done it really long enough to feel and to see the benefits. If your water is really full of things it need not be, your water may not be as user friendly as you would hope. I drink water that I buy at the store, Propel. It really makes a huge difference in my ability to stay on task longer. It keeps me from dehydrating, and I used to do that all the time. My skin looks healthier, not so dry and/or flaky as it once did. I get less colds, etc. than I used to. I don't gain weight, as I am kept pretty full between means with the water. I exercise more, as I am not dehydrated. It has lots of benefits for this body. I hope yours kick in, soon!

For some reason italians think it keeps away animals from pissing around their home. Probably along time ago they used to keep their own pee in those bottles to keep away animals. I dont believe regular water will actually work, but they carry on the tradition.

g.monkey is right! I don't know if it works, but a lot of people do it to keep away cats and dogs. Italians are strange, sometimes.
