Summary of the contracting process

Lichfield District Council procured wheeled waste and rubbish containers for delivery in the West Midlands. The requirement covers the supply of 140-litre, 180-litre and 240-litre wheeled bins, supporting the council’s waste and recycling service. This is a goods contract rather than a works or service requirement, and the scope is focused on providing standard wheeled bins in several sizes. Businesses relevant to this opportunity are manufacturers, distributors and specialist suppliers of household or commercial waste containers, particularly those able to fulfil orders for different bin capacities and arrange delivery to the council’s operating area. The purchasing organisation is Lichfield District Council, based in Lichfield, England.

This procurement has been completed and awarded following a selective procedure using a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 24 April 2026 at 12:00. Lichfield District Council awarded the contract to Contenur (UK) Ltd on 20 August 2026. The awarded value is £667,700, and the estimated procurement range was £276,851 to £667,700, all in GBP. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 March 2028. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active, and the underlying tender is complete. The purchasing route indicates that future suppliers may need access to, or eligibility under, a relevant framework agreement and the ability to respond to a selective call-off process.

This award is useful market evidence for suppliers of wheeled waste bins, including manufacturers, specialist distributors and businesses that combine product supply with reliable regional logistics. A credible competitor for this buyer would need to provide 140-litre, 180-litre and 240-litre containers at scale, maintain consistent product quality across the range and coordinate delivery into the West Midlands. The successful supplier was a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only a large national corporation. Suppliers considering comparable public-sector work should understand framework call-off purchasing, selective competitions, order planning and dependable fulfilment for council waste services. Experience supplying durable household or commercial waste containers would strengthen their position when demonstrating capability for similar requirements.
