Notice Information
Notice Title
Removals and Storage Framework Agreement
Notice Description
When an individual or a family group present as homeless, the council has a legal duty under the Housing Scotland Act (1987) to provide services to remove and/or store furniture and personal belongings for clients. Due to the nature of the works involved in providing the service, the council cannot provide this service in house and therefore need to outsource this requirement and appoint a suitably experienced supplier to provide the service on behalf of the council.
Lot Information
Removals and Storage Framework Agreement - Lot One (Domestic Removals and Storage)
The nature of the work involved will vary depending on the nature of the request to remove and store items but will cover situations such as homelessness, decants for improvement works to be carried out and other ad hoc situations such as abandonments and other routine tenancy changes. We seek to appoint one supplier to this lot.
Renewal: Contract will have a 12 month extension available.
Removals and Storage Framework Agreement - Lot Two (House to House Moves)The Authority may use this framework to move a tenant's furniture to a more suitable tenancy due to the house being unsuitable due to personal needs. The framework may also be used when the Authority needs to decant a tenant to a different property due to remedial or emergency repairs. In these situations, the tenant's belongings may either be required to be stored or moved to another property dependant on the situation. In the event that belongings are required to be stored in a storage facility, this service will be covered under Lot 1 of this framework agreement. We seek to appoint 3 suppliers to this lot.
Renewal: A 12 month extension shall be available.
Removals and Storage Framework Agreement - Lot Three (Large Office and School Moves Including Crate Hire)This lot is for non-residential properties only and will include office buildings, schools, community centres and other location within the Authority's property portfolio. The service will include removal of office furniture, including the supply of storage boxes and crates, from Authority buildings and transport these to another area of the same building or to a different property. We seek to appoint three suppliers to this lot.
Renewal: 12 Month extension shall be available.
