Summary of the contracting process

The Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime procured larger waste and rubbish containers, described as large canisters, for delivery in the United Kingdom. The requirement covered one purchase order for 5 tonnes of canisters, together with transport and a consignment note. This is a goods procurement for the buyer’s operational waste-handling needs. The published item classification identifies waste and rubbish containers and bins (CPV 34928480). The requirement was arranged as a single completed lot. The buyer is a public authority based in London, while the awarded supplier, Biffa Waste Services Limited, is based in High Wycombe. Businesses relevant to this requirement include manufacturers, distributors and waste-management suppliers able to provide large canisters in tonnage quantities and arrange delivery with the required documentation.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a below-threshold procedure; the recorded method detail is ‘below threshold - unknown’. Biffa Waste Services Limited received the award for the single lot. The award is active and the contract was signed on 3 June 2025. The contract period ran from 3 June 2025 to 3 July 2025. Its value was £44,510 excluding VAT and £53,412 including VAT. The tender description priced the canisters at £8,750 per tonne for 5 tonnes, plus a £60 consignment note and £700 transport, giving a stated pre-tax requirement of £44,510. The award was evaluated within one completed lot, with the procurement category recorded as goods. The contract itself is active in the procurement record.

For a supplier considering similar work for the Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime, this award demonstrates demand for large waste containers supplied in a defined tonnage quantity rather than as a minor ad hoc purchase. A credible competitor would need access to suitable large canisters or waste and rubbish containers, the capacity to fulfil a 5-tonne order, and the ability to organise transport to the United Kingdom. It would also need to price the goods clearly by tonne and account for associated consignment-note and transport charges. The successful supplier was a large waste-services business, indicating that relevant operational scale, logistics capability and experience in handling commercial or public-sector waste-container requirements would strengthen a future response. Suppliers able to combine container provision, documentation and delivery would be well placed for this buyer’s requirement.
