What is being bought

Published requirement description

This Contract is primarily to provide a removal and storage service for Fife Council. This will include office/building moves, moving furniture and equipment from either one area of the same building to another or to a completely different location within Fife. There may be a need for storage depending on the circumstances prevailing at the time. Removal and storage services for the Housing Service when housing or moving clients and homeless customers, and many of the requirements of the Contract are sensitive and/or urgent, the successful supplier must take this into consideration and maintain confidentiality at all times, including after the contract end period.

The Contract will also provide for planned and emergency removal and delivery of items within, and from one location to another within the boundary of Fife and storage at the Contractor’s facility if required. Tenderers will be advised that they must be able to respond to emergency moves within 2 hours of notification.
