To my memory, these platforms for milk "container" collection are still in active daily use at least in some parts northern Italy, and, I think, other parts of the Alps. So it is important not to make the tag "historic" only. In some parts of Germany there used to be one-per-village small buildings where the farmers would deposit their milk cans.I don't if any of these are still active, but I imagine that same are still present as small buildings.
