Framework for the Supply of Specialised (Domestic) Removals, Storage and Disposal Services

The Council sought supplier with the ability to supply of Specialised (Domestic) Removal, Storage and Disposal Services (the "Services") under a proposed Framework Agreement and will operate as reactive call-outs. The majority of the removals will be within the Kirklees area, but it is possible that on occasions there will be jobs in other parts of Yorkshire and sometimes to other parts of the Country. The Framework Agreement will allow for the Council to discharge their duties by providing access to the following Services, including but not limited to: • Provision of packing boxes if requested (in advance of moving date) • Packing/un-packing of tenants' belongings where the tenant or family members are not capable i.e. elderly/vulnerable, where requested • Secure storage of goods up to a maximum of 2 years • Disconnection and reconnection of non-hardwired electrical goods • Disconnection and re-connection of domestic appliances including water connections to washing machines and dishwashers where required • Removal services, including lifting, handling, packaging, storage & transport of goods • Environmentally sound disposal of tenants' goods/waste that is no longer required, for example from storage when instructed and including confirmation of disposal • Taking down/putting up of pictures, bathroom cabinets, shelves etc. prior to and following a move, if requested • Dismantling furniture and reassembly thereafter, if requested • Lifting and storage of carpets on request, and delivery to the new property (this does not include fitting requirements) The framework agreement will operate as a multi-supplier framework and suppliers will be ranked in accordance with the evaluation criteria.
