The successful Bidder(s) may also propose to receive direct deliveries of Contract Waste from the Constituent Councils to its facilities; Contract Waste may be delivered as a single co-mingled stream; Provision of capacity to treat dry recycling materials; Management, recycling and treatment of products, residues and rejected waste, including transport; Maximising the recycling and beneficial use of products, residues and rejected waste; and Reporting and monitoring of environmental compliance.
