Summary of the contracting process

Chesterfield Borough Council purchased communal food waste bins for use across Chesterfield, including multi-occupancy dwellings and other shared residential areas. The requirement is for 140-litre wheeled bins with a lid-in-lid design, suitable for regular food waste collection in shared external areas. Bins are to have a silver-grey body, a contrasting inner lid where available, and display the Council’s logo, name and clear “Food Waste” wording. The supply also covers associated branding and delivery requirements. Suppliers were expected to provide information on colour combinations, indicative pricing, lead times, minimum order quantities, locking options and the availability of sample bins or lids. This is a goods procurement for waste and rubbish containers and bins, delivered for the Council’s communal collection service in Chesterfield.

The procurement is complete following a below-threshold limited competition. It comprised one lot for the supply of the communal food waste bins. The contract was awarded to CONTENUR (UK) LIMITED on 10 August 2026 and signed on the same date. The contract runs from 10 August 2026 to 9 August 2029. Its value is £25,000 excluding VAT, or £30,000 including VAT. The initial requirement was approximately 500 bins, with an anticipated ongoing requirement of around 40 bins per year for spare stock and replacements. The selected supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise. The award is active and the contract is active, so this record represents an established supply arrangement rather than an unawarded procurement.

This requirement is relevant to manufacturers, distributors and branded-bins suppliers able to provide 140-litre wheeled food waste bins for communal residential settings. A credible competitor would need to supply a lid-in-lid design suitable for regular outdoor operational use, meet specified body and inner-lid colour requirements, and apply durable Council branding and clear food waste identification. Capability to support an initial order of about 500 units, followed by recurring spare and replacement demand, would be important. Suppliers should be able to give reliable lead times, minimum order quantities, indicative pricing, locking options and sample bins or lids for assessment. The award shows that Chesterfield Borough Council buys standardised, branded communal food waste equipment through a limited below-threshold competition, with emphasis on practical supply and delivery capability.
