## Learn about recycling from the experts Since 2006 Veolia has been helping Nottinghamshire County Council and the seven Borough/District Councils of Nottinghamshire to manage household waste created in the County. We have helped to increase household recycling in the County to 40% and diverted 98.7% of waste from going to landfill. As the UK leader in environmental solutions, Veolia provides a comprehensive range of waste, water and energy management services designed to build the circular economy and preserve scarce raw materials. **You can now book for one of our ECO Officers to come to your school to deliver an assembly or workshop about recycling!** To find out more information or arrange a visit, please email [ ![](/sites/g/files/dvc1716/files/styles/content_push_teaser/public/image/2019/01/1.Materials%20Recovery%20Facility_0.jpg.webp?itok=Qbc8jCvt) ](/visiting-the-mrf "Visiting the Materials Recovery Facility") [Visiting the Materials Recovery Facility](/visiting-the-mrf "Visiting the Materials Recovery Facility") What to expect when you visit the Materials Recovery Facility [Read more](/visiting-the-mrf "Read more") [ ![Photo of Materials Recovery Facility Welcome Sign](/sites/g/files/dvc1716/files/styles/content_push_teaser/public/image/2026/09/1.Materials%20Recovery%20Facility_0.jpg.webp?itok=0PUXGIIT) ](/mrf-visit-for-schools "Visits for Schools") [Visits for Schools](/mrf-visit-for-schools "Visits for Schools") Bring your class to our Materials Recovery Facility for an engaging school trip to learn all about recycling in Nottinghamshire.
