Waste Disposal Framework

Rotherham Borough Council · Local authority

In brief

Rotherham Borough Council has announced plans to buy waste work. This is an early notice: there is nothing to bid on yet, but it tells you a tender may follow.

It is a framework worth up to £6,000,000 including VAT: the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers, not one contract.

The contract runs for 5 years, starting 1 January 2028.

The buyer says it is suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.

Built from the notice's own fields. Always check the official notice before you bid.

Can I win this?

Competition

Typical: a median of 2.5 bids per contract for this buyer (from 6 awards in the last 12 months).

Framework

Winning puts you on a list of suppliers the buyer can call on; it does not guarantee work. The £6,000,000 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.

What the notice says

The Council has an on-going need to dispose of waste from around the borough to enable it to undertake its day to day operations. The proposed procurement includes but is not limited to: Tipping: Highways waste, grounds maintenance waste (green waste, glass, plastics, animal waste, clothing etc.), fly tipping waste (tyres, white goods, chairs, clothing, timber, glass etc.), furnished homes waste from properties Skips: Hire of skips of various sizes and various locations around the borough, and disposal of their contents Highways arising's and gulley waste: street sweepings and gulley emptying are non-source segregated waste collected by the machines from the highway around the Borough. The waste collected typically consists of sand, silt, gravel, leaves, litter including cans/plastics and cigarette butts. Due to the nature of the requirement there cannot be any guarantee of tonnages of waste in any one year or throughout the term of the agreement. It is expected (but not confirmed) that route to market will be open tender to create a multi-lot framework
