UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

South Kesteven District Council is inviting tenders for the provision of stickers for garden waste bins as part of its ongoing garden waste collection service, which operates in Grantham, UK (region UKF30). The procurement process is currently at the tender stage, with the tender closing on 18 December 2025. Classified under the industry category of "public authority-sub-central government" and primarily related to "advertising stickers and strips," this open competition is valued at £252,000 gross (£210,000 net) and is below the procurement threshold. The contract is scheduled to commence on 2 February 2026 and will potentially run until 5 February 2029, with an extension option available for an additional two years.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in printing and distribution services, particularly those with experience in handling large-volume orders efficiently. Companies with capabilities in producing durable, high-quality stickers and managing customer correspondence would be well-suited to meet the council's requirements for garden waste sticker and letter distribution. The evaluation criteria prioritise quality over cost (60% quality, 40% price), providing an optimal platform for firms to showcase their service superiority and potentially secure a long-term partnership, thereby enhancing their market presence and driving significant business growth.

Notice Title

SKDC-1409-Stickers For Garden Waste Bins

Notice Description

South Kesteven District Council has provided a garden waste collection service to households within the district for over 13 years. This is a chargeable service, payable annually by households, above and beyond our statutory duty to collect recyclables and residual waste from every property in the district. The subscription period for garden waste is from 1 April each year. For financial year 2024/2025, there were approximately 32,000 households subscribing to the scheme. Subscribers are actively encouraged to renew subscriptions via renewal reminder letters, where SKDC does not hold an email address. Households subscribing to the scheme are provided with a sticker to affix to the back of their garden waste bins, as a visible indication of their membership. The Council is looking for competent and experienced supplier to provide the printing and posting of garden waste stickers and supporting services around renewal letter invitations.
