Summary of the contracting process

Worcester City Council procured household waste and recycling bins for its household waste collection service in Worcester. The requirement covers bulk supply and storage at the supplier’s premises until the Council requests delivery, supporting resident requests for new and replacement bins. The products are black refuse bins, green recycling bins and brown bins in several sizes: 240-litre, 180-litre, 360-litre and 140-litre models. The listed quantities are 1,120 240-litre black bins, 1,024 180-litre black bins, 1,100 240-litre green bins, 230 360-litre green bins, 100 240-litre brown bins, 100 360-litre black bins, 100 140-litre black bins and 100 140-litre green bins. This is a goods requirement for a manufacturer, distributor or managed stockholding supplier of wheeled waste containers.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective, below-threshold procedure under a framework, without a competitive call-off. The single completed lot was awarded to SSI SCHAEFER PLASTICS UK LIMITED. The contract was signed on 27 February 2026 and runs from 1 March 2026 to 28 February 2027. Its value is £93,508.80 excluding VAT, or £112,210.56 including VAT. The Council holds an option to make additional bin purchases while the contract remains valid. The award covers the waste and recycling bin supply requirement described above. The published outcome identifies SSI SCHAEFER PLASTICS UK LIMITED as the active supplier; the procurement record does not set out a separate quality, price or other scoring breakdown.

This outcome demonstrates established demand from Worcester City Council for a managed supply of multiple wheeled-bin sizes and colours, rather than one-off delivery. A credible future competitor would need dependable access to refuse, recycling and food-waste containers, the production or distribution capacity to handle mixed specifications in bulk, and a storage operation able to hold stock off-site until scheduled or requested deliveries. Stock control, accurate picking by size and colour, responsive replenishment and reliable delivery to Worcester would be central to performance. Suppliers with experience supporting local-authority household waste services, resident replacement programmes and framework-based purchasing would be well placed. Manufacturers and distributors able to provide consistent product quality across the full range should monitor this buyer’s requirements.
