UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Ipswich Borough Council procured plastic waste and rubbish bins for use in Ipswich. The requirement covers bins in varying sizes and colours, with the main category being waste and rubbish containers and bins (CPV 34928480). This is a goods procurement rather than a works or services contract. The delivery location is within the Ipswich area. The council is the buying organisation and the requirement was arranged as one procurement lot. It is relevant to manufacturers, distributors and specialist suppliers of plastic waste containers that can offer different bin sizes and colour options for a local authority application. Businesses whose work is limited to waste collection, disposal services or general facilities management would not be the direct fit for this requirement.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to CONTENUR (UK) LIMITED. The award is active, and the contract is also active. The contract was signed on 31 March 2026 and runs from 31 March 2026 to 31 January 2028. Its value is £26,868 excluding VAT, or £32,241 including VAT. The award covers the single lot and the recorded supplier is CONTENUR (UK) LIMITED. Ipswich Borough Council used a limited competition below the relevant threshold, rather than an open procedure. The published outcome identifies the purchase as goods and records the waste-bin requirement, but does not set out a separate award scoring breakdown. The process is therefore evidence of a completed, below-threshold council purchase of plastic waste bins.

This procurement shows a defined requirement for a supplier able to provide plastic waste bins in multiple sizes and colours to Ipswich Borough Council. A credible competitor for a future requirement of the same kind would need a dependable range of plastic waste containers, control over colour and sizing options, and the operational capacity to supply a local authority delivery requirement. Experience supplying councils or other public-sector customers would help demonstrate familiarity with formal purchasing processes and delivery expectations, although the procurement does not state specific accreditations or technical qualifications. The selected supplier is recorded as an SME, indicating that this type of council goods purchase can be fulfilled by a focused specialist business rather than only by a large national organisation. The route used was limited competition below threshold, so suppliers should be prepared to respond efficiently to targeted opportunities.
