Educational Programs

The Field Operations Department offers several opportunities for teachers, organizations, and individuals to learn about recycling and waste reduction. We can tailor a presentation to fit the needs of your group -- all ages and any size, at your location or ours.

What happens to your recyclables once they leave your home? Find out when you visit the FCR Recycling Facility for a live presentation, a video, and a view of the actual sorting process for recyclables. Center presentations are usually conducted Tuesday through Friday from 9 am - 3 pm, but other times may be available by request. Presentations may last from 15 minutes to one hour, depending on the needs and interest of your group.
