UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cardiff Council has initiated a tender process for the "Transportation and Processing of Dry Mixed Recycling" services. This procurement falls under the industry categories of waste-treatment plant construction work and refuse disposal and treatment, with a focus on the transport and disposal of waste materials in the UK, specifically in Cardiff. The tender, which is in the active stage, has a budgeted value of £120,315 (net), with submissions being accepted until 16th June 2026. Organisations interested in applying must submit their proposals electronically and within the specified deadline on the tender platform. The competitive process is open and is governed by Welsh devolved regulations, making it suitable for a range of qualified service providers.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses, especially those specialising in waste management, recycling, and logistics. Given that the selection criteria include a 60% emphasis on cost alongside a 40% weighting on quality, companies that balance competitive pricing with quality service delivery may find this contract particularly attractive. Furthermore, the project supports smaller enterprises (SMEs) and involves a potential contract extension at the council's discretion, offering longer-term business growth potential. Businesses adept in handling recycling logistics and compliance with local regulations should consider this an excellent opportunity to expand their operations within the public sector.
