Summary of the contracting process

Elmbridge Borough Council, Mole Valley District Council, Surrey Heath Borough Council and Woking Borough Council jointly procure household and other waste collection, waste transport and recycling services, alongside street cleaning. The service covers refuse collection and recycling, including dry recycling, food and garden waste, residual waste, bulky waste, batteries, electrical and electronic equipment, textiles and clinical waste. It also includes assisted collections, provision and delivery of containers, street cleaning, removal of fly-tipping, fly-posting and graffiti, and a service-user contact centre. The work is delivered across the four councils’ areas in Surrey, in South East England. Veolia ES (UK) Limited is the selected provider.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Veolia ES (UK) Limited. The award was made on 3 August 2026 and the contract was signed on 28 August 2026. Its value is £526,947,718 excluding VAT (£632,337,262 including VAT). The initial contract period runs from 6 June 2027 to 5 June 2034, with two possible seven-year extensions, potentially extending the term to 5 June 2048. There was one lot. The councils used a competitive flexible procedure with supplier selection and tender stages. Evaluation weighted technical quality at 45%, commercial price at 45% and social value at 10%. Three valid tenders were received. Participation conditions covered economic and technical criteria.

This award demonstrates demand from four Surrey councils for a large-scale, integrated municipal waste and street-cleaning service. A credible competitor for this requirement would need the operational capacity to run collection rounds across multiple council areas, manage a broad range of household and non-domestic waste streams, maintain recycling separation through to delivery sites, and provide containers, assisted collections and responsive customer support. Delivery also requires street-cleaning capability, including handling fly-tipping, fly-posting and graffiti, together with reliable reporting and contract management. Performance is measured against missed collections, completed rounds, cleanliness, spillages, service-user contact and other service standards. The competitive process assessed technical quality, price and social value, and participation required economic and technical credentials. The three final-stage bidders were large waste-management operators, indicating the scale and established service capability against which competitors would need to demonstrate credibility.
