Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the City of Wakefield purchased domestic wheeled waste and recycling bins. The requirement covered 1,200 recycling bins with a 240-litre capacity and 600 domestic bins with a 240-litre capacity, making 1,800 bins in total across the completed requirement. This is a goods supply opportunity in the waste and recycling equipment sector, covering the manufacture, supply and delivery of wheeled containers for household use. The purchasing organisation is the Council of the City of Wakefield, a local public authority. The contract concerns bins for use within the United Kingdom. The relevant product classifications are waste and rubbish containers and bins, and bins. The procurement was arranged as one completed lot, covering both the recycling and domestic bin requirements.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a below-threshold procedure whose detailed method is recorded as unknown. One supplier, IPL PLASTICS (UK) LIMITED, was selected for the single lot. The award is active and the contract is active. The contract was signed on 24 July 2026 and runs from 27 July 2026 to 31 August 2026. Its gross value is £36,432. The published requirement covered 1,200 240-litre recycling bins and 600 240-litre domestic bins. The procurement was evaluated as a goods purchase. The available outcome shows the named supplier and contract value, but does not set out separate lot values, a formal award date, or award criteria. The contract is below the applicable threshold.

This award demonstrates demand from Wakefield Council for a substantial, short-duration supply of standard 240-litre wheeled bins for household recycling and domestic waste. Suppliers well placed for comparable work would need reliable access to suitable bin manufacturing or distribution capacity, the ability to provide consistent product specifications across a mixed order, and operational capability to handle 1,800 units. Experience supplying local authorities, waste collection services or other public-sector users would help demonstrate understanding of household container requirements, order administration and delivery coordination. Competitors should be able to evidence dependable production or stock availability, quality control and the capacity to fulfil both recycling and domestic container lines within a single requirement. The buyer’s use of a below-threshold route also indicates a procurement suited to suppliers able to respond to relatively focused local-authority purchasing exercises.
