Summary of the contracting process

The Maidstone Borough Council is initiating a tender process for the collection and disposal of commercial waste, as indicated by the Prior Information Notice dated 2nd May 2018. This project falls under the refuse disposal and treatment category, aiming to support local small to medium-sized enterprises within Maidstone, located in the South East of England. The procurement is currently in the planning stage, with a milestone engagement end date set for 2nd August 2018. The estimated budget for this contract is £100,000, and bidders are required to operate within a 10-mile radius of the Council's Park Wood Depot.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for waste management companies and businesses specialising in waste disposal solutions, particularly those focused on energy recovery, to expand their client base in the Maidstone area. The contract involves the daily collection and transport of approximately 800 tonnes of mixed waste from around 360 customers, necessitating a robust logistical approach. Companies that can meet the service delivery requirements, including having a suitable disposal facility, are encouraged to participate and could benefit significantly from securing a contract with the Council.

Notice Title

Prior information Notice - Commercial Waste

Notice Description

Collection and disposal of commercial waste. Additional information: COMMERCIAL WASTE SOLUTIONS - WASTE DISPOSAL CONTRACT Maidstone Borough Council operates a commercial waste service to local small to medium sized enterprises within the Borough. The service currently collects waste in sacks, 240 litre and 1100 litre bins from approximately 360 customers. This generates in the region of 800 tonnes of general mixed waste (EWC 20-03-01) requiring disposal. There is a requirement to directly deliver the waste on a daily basis using a 26 tonne collection vehicle, as the Council does not have a facility to bulk the waste at the Council's Depot. Therefore the disposal facility needs to be within 10 miles or 20 minutes travel time (whichever is smaller) of the Council's Park Wood Depot to limit downtime of the service. The Council is committed to following the principles of the waste hierarchy and therefore seeks disposal to be through energy recovery as opposed to landfill.
