Summary of the contracting process

Lichfield District Council procured a fleet of heavy goods vehicles to support household waste collections for residents of Lichfield District and Tamworth Borough. The service covers refuse, dry recycling and garden waste, together with trade waste and trade recycling collections across both districts. The requirement sits within waste, environmental and fleet management services, including the vehicle capability needed to operate and maintain the collection fleet. Delivery is centred on Lichfield and Tamworth, within the West Midlands and England. This is a vehicle-focused public service requirement rather than a general waste disposal contract: relevant businesses are those able to provide, manage or support heavy goods vehicles used for scheduled municipal and commercial waste and recycling collections.

The procurement is complete and was run by Lichfield District Council using an open procedure. The tender deadline was 13 June 2024 at 12:00. The estimated value was between £11,600,000 and £23,200,000. Riverside Truck Rental Ltd was awarded the contract on 13 March 2025. The published award value was £11,604,269.88, later revised to £11,762,709.88 in a further award record. The awarded contract period runs from 31 March 2025 to 30 March 2032. The requirement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Evaluation was conducted through the open procedure for services relating to fleet management, repair and maintenance, alongside refuse, cleaning and environmental services. One supplier received the award.

This procurement demonstrates sustained demand from Lichfield District Council for a substantial heavy goods vehicle fleet supporting both household and trade waste services across Lichfield and Tamworth. A credible future competitor would need the capacity to provide or manage multiple suitable waste collection vehicles, support refuse, recycling and garden waste operations, and accommodate commercial trade waste and trade recycling routes. Fleet availability, vehicle reliability, servicing, repairs and operational support are central capabilities. Businesses with established heavy vehicle rental, fleet management or specialist waste collection vehicle expertise are the closest fit. The stated SME suitability indicates that smaller firms may be well placed where they can demonstrate sufficient vehicle capacity, dependable maintenance arrangements and experience supporting local-authority or comparable waste collection operations.
