The council currently collects 4 streams of waste and recycling at the kerbside, these are residual waste, garden waste, paper and cardboard and Dry mixed recycling (DMR).

The contract for both Paper and cardboard and DMR expires in August 2024 and so if we are to continue to provide these services it is essential that the council reprocures these contracts.

  • Quality: 35
  • Price: 60
What this means for your bid

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
