Summary of the contracting process

Ashfield District Council is procuring a skip-hire and waste-disposal service for its Housing Repairs and Maintenance Departments, with procurement services provided by Nottinghamshire County Council. The requirement covers supplying, delivering and collecting skips, together with disposal of the waste they contain. Skips will be delivered to locations across the Ashfield District for Ashfield District Council tenants to dispose of general household waste. Other skips will be positioned at the Northern Depot on Station Road, Sutton in Ashfield, for waste arising from repairs and maintenance work on council-owned properties. This is a waste-related service opportunity for skip-hire operators, waste contractors and providers able to manage delivery, collection and lawful disposal across the district.

The procurement reached tender: the councils invited offers through an open procedure. Enquiries were due by 21 August 2026 at 5pm, and tender submissions were due by 1 September 2026 at noon. The planned award decision date was 29 September 2026. The estimated value is £384,000 excluding VAT, or £480,000 including VAT. There is one lot. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2028, with one available 24-month extension, allowing the contract to continue until 31 December 2030. Tenders will be evaluated on price at 70%, quality at 20% and social value at 10%. The opportunity is identified as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This opportunity suits suppliers with an established skip-hire operation and the practical capacity to provide skips to multiple locations across Ashfield District when required. Competitors should be able to arrange reliable delivery and collection for both householders using council housing services and council teams working at the Northern Depot. They should also have the operational capability and waste-management arrangements needed to receive and dispose of general household waste and waste generated by property repairs and maintenance. Relevant experience in serving housing, repairs, maintenance or other public-sector operations would be useful in demonstrating quality, although the published requirements do not identify a specific accreditation. The evaluation gives significant weight to price, while quality and social value also affect the award decision.
