Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Bristol Waste Company procured the rental of eight gritter vehicles for its operations in the South West of England. This is a goods requirement for specialist winter-service vehicles, classified as gritter vehicles (CPV 34144440). The procurement forms Lot 3 of the TPPL Bristol Waste CSKL Vehicle Rental Framework 2025. The buyer is Bristol Waste Company, based in Bristol. The requirement concerns vehicle rental rather than vehicle purchase, so relevant businesses are commercial fleet-rental providers, specialist municipal vehicle suppliers and operators able to provide suitable gritters for use in the South West. The stated requirement is for eight vehicles, indicating a sizeable but focused fleet supply rather than a general vehicle-hire service.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a tender process. Bristol Waste Company awarded the contract to Riverside Truck Rental Limited, trading as NRG Riverside. The award was made on 29 April 2026 for £610,000, and the contract runs from 30 April 2026 to 30 May 2026. The tender submission deadline was 27 February 2026. The procurement is identified as Lot 3, covering the rental of eight gritters, within the TPPL Bristol Waste CSKL Vehicle Rental Framework 2025. The tender had a total estimated value of £610,000. The published outcome records the successful supplier and an active award; the contract period is a one-month operating term.

Although this contract has already been awarded, it provides a clear benchmark for suppliers targeting Bristol Waste Company’s future gritter-rental requirements. A credible competitor would need access to a fleet of eight suitable gritter vehicles, the operational capacity to provide them as a coordinated package, and experience supporting municipal or winter-service operations. Vehicle availability, reliability, maintenance arrangements, rapid fault response and compliance with road and operational safety requirements would be central to a competitive offer. The buyer’s stated suitability assessment indicates that the opportunity was not aimed at SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises, so future suppliers should expect the scale, assets and delivery capability associated with an established specialist fleet-rental business.
