Summary of the contracting process

Liverpool City Council is procuring on-street modular bin hubs and associated waste infrastructure for Liverpool. The requirement supports an upgrade of the existing 850 communal bin sites. The main works involve supplying modular housing units that shroud communal bins, improve the appearance of sites and display messages encouraging residents to use them correctly. The procurement also covers installation of the housing units, communal food-waste bins and bin lids. This is a goods-led requirement with associated street-furniture installation. Suppliers relevant to this work include manufacturers and distributors of communal waste bins, modular enclosures, lids and related street furniture, as well as contractors able to install these products across multiple sites in Liverpool. The opportunity is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The procurement was run as an above-threshold open procedure and has reached the award stage. Storm Environmental Limited was selected for modular bin housing units with installation, awarded £953,304.50 excluding VAT and £11,423,965.40 including VAT; the award date was 6 August 2026. Broxap Limited was selected for communal food-waste bins, awarded £279,285 excluding VAT and £335,142 including VAT, with an award date of 3 July 2026. Storm Environmental Limited was selected for bin lids, awarded £214,500 excluding VAT and £257,400 including VAT, also on 3 July 2026. The awards have a contract period from 24 August 2026 to 23 August 2029, with one possible 12-month extension. Evaluation weighted price at 45%, quality at 45% and social value at 10%.

This procurement shows demand from Liverpool City Council for coordinated communal-waste infrastructure, combining manufactured products with installation and resident-facing design. A credible future supplier would need the capacity to produce or source durable communal bins, modular bin housings and replacement lids, with reliable quality control across different product lines. For the housing requirement, capability to install street furniture safely and consistently across a large number of existing communal sites is important. Suppliers should also be able to demonstrate product quality, practical understanding of correct waste-use messaging and a deliverable social-value offer. The competition included an SME and a large supplier, indicating that both specialist manufacturers and established providers with appropriate delivery or installation capacity may be well placed. Price, quality and social value all materially affect competitiveness.
