Lot Information

Integrated Waste Management

Integrated waste management combines a variety of strategies for both waste management and waste reduction. Some common examples that are involved in integrated waste management include waste reduction methods, energy recovery, reusing, recycling, composting and as a last resort landfill. We require suppliers to provide customers/participating authorities with strategies on how to manage their integrated waste management ensuring minimal waste is sent to landfill sites. Tenderers must have the capability to provide a wide range of waste management services, both scheduled and/or ad-hoc for schools and the wider public sector including, but not limited to: -- collection, disposal and treatment of: * bin bag/sacks; * wheelie bins (various sizes - collection and delivery); -- skips Front End Loading (FEL) and Rear End Loading (REL); -- roll-on-roll-off containers; -- kerb-side; -- bulk waste; -- fly tipping (removal).

General Waste and Recycling

General waste, also called residual waste, is material from businesses and households that cannot be recycled. It includes materials such as non-recyclable plastics, polythene, some packaging and kitchen scraps. Historically, this waste has invariable been disposed of in landfill sites and general waste is still disposed of this way. However, advances in technology now mean that there are several alternative ways of dealing with general waste, which can ensure that value - usually in the form of energy - is recovered from it. As well as household waste recycling centres, suppliers would also be required to assist with the management of Closed Landfill Sites as well as other infrastructure. Skills for this will include but not limited to civil, mechanical and electrical waste related. We require suppliers to provide customers/participating authorities with general waste and recycling services ensuring minimal waste is sent to landfill sites. Tenderers must have the capability to provide a wide range of general waste and recycling services, both scheduled and/or ad-hoc for schools and the wider public sector including, but not limited to: -- collection, disposal and treatment of: * bin bag/sacks; * wheelie bins (various sizes - collection and delivery); -- skips Front End Loading (FEL) and Rear End Loading (REL); -- roll-on-roll-off containers; -- kerb-Side; -- bulk waste; -- fly tipping (removal).

Clinical, Chemical, Asbestos, Hazardous and Radioactive Waste

Clinical waste is defined as hazardous waste that is generated by the healthcare sector. Clinical waste is highly regulated to prevent harm to human health and the environment. A hazardous waste consignment note (HWCN) is a document that details the transfer of hazardous waste from one person to another. The hazardous waste transfer note forms part of the waste duty of care. A note is needed for all movement of hazardous waste, including: -- collection from businesses by registered waste carriers; -- movements from one premises to another within the same business; -- movements from customer premises, where another business has produced waste. You must ensure every load of hazardous waste you receive or pass to others is covered by a HWCN. Asbestos waste from a domestic premise requires that the homeowner receives a HWCN. Hazardous waste notes ensure that there is a clear audit trail from when the waste is produced until it is disposed of. You must keep copies of all your waste transfer notes (including HWCNs) for a least three years and must be able to produce them on demand. We require suppliers to provide customers/participating authorities with a clinical, chemical, asbestos, hazardous and radioactive waste services ensuring all waste is disposed of according to Government Legislation. Tenderers must have the capability to provide a wide range of clinical, chemical, asbestos, hazardous and radioactive waste services, both scheduled and/or ad-hoc for schools and the wider public sector

Confidential Waste

Any business that produces, handles or disposes of confidential waste is legally required to ensure it is managed correctly under Duty of Care Legislation. The disposal of confidential waste is governed by the Waste Regulations 2011 and the Law requires: -- waste to be stored correctly i.e. it must be properly contained; -- only registered waste carriers collect waste; -- collections to be covered by a valid waste transfer note that includes key details; -- copies of transfer notes for confidential waste to be retained for 2years; and -- confidential waste is only taken to an authorised facility with the necessary waste licencing.

Provision of Wheeled Container including Balers/Compactor

We require suppliers to provide customers/participating authorities with wheeled containers including balers and compactors, for schools and the wider public sector. All plastic wheeled bins must be constructed and conform to the following specification: -- meet EN840 1-6 standard (suppliers/providers to provide copies of current certification); -- manufactured in accordance with BS EN ISO 9002 quality standard; -- plastic wheeled bins with two wheels should conform to British Standard BS EN 840: 1997.
