About us

Veolia Environmental Services is the UK’s leading recycling and waste management company, enjoying a UK presence since 1990.

We have developed so much in the last 20 years and are proud to be the sector’s only full-range service provider. Our employees are our key asset and we have grown to nearly 12,000 staff covering 350 locations.

We are conscious of our responsibilities; we promote sustainable waste treatment methods to maximise resource and energy recovery, and we’re committed to investing in the UK’s recycling and waste infrastructure. This helps create cleaner, greener communities and, since 1997, we have contributed over £42 million to community projects through The Veolia Environmental Trust.

Over a third of the UK’s population benefit from Veolia's services; refuse, recycling, street cleansing and grounds maintenance services are provided to more than 100 Local Authorities nationwide. Meanwhile, more than 65,000 commercial and industrial customers can take advantage of recycling and waste collection, treatment, recovery and disposal services for dry, liquid and hazardous waste. We also provide on-site industrial services, decommissioning and emergency response, as well as a range of compliance services.

Veolia Environmental Services invests heavily in research, development and new technologies, and is committed to staying ahead of the latest legislation. We’re committed to protecting and enhancing our environment, and we will continue to anticipate and innovate to deliver services that meet our customers’ needs. We see our role as pivotal in securing a positive future for the environment and a benchmark for the industry.
