Summary of the contracting process

Bristol City Council procured rubbish clearance services to remove fly-tipped waste from a council Traveller site in Bristol. The requirement covers non-hazardous refuse and waste treatment and disposal, including the clearance activity and subsequent handling of the waste. It is a services contract for work carried out at the council’s site in Bristol. The council is the public-sector buyer and is responsible for the requirement. The procurement was treated as a concession under the applicable special regime. The service is relevant to waste clearance contractors, fly-tipping response providers and operators able to remove and arrange treatment or disposal of non-hazardous waste from public-sector sites. The published scope is focused on a specific site-clearance requirement rather than a broader municipal waste collection service.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to TOM'S RUBBISH CLEARANCE LIMITED, an SME based in Warmley. Bristol City Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 7 June 2026 and runs from 10 June 2026 to 10 July 2026. Its value is £35,000 excluding VAT, or £42,000 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. There was one completed lot covering the rubbish-clearance requirement. The award relates to non-hazardous refuse and waste treatment and disposal services. The recorded route was a below-threshold procurement without competition, so the outcome reflects a direct appointment rather than a competitive evaluation of multiple bids.

This award indicates a defined requirement from Bristol City Council for rapid, site-based removal of fly-tipped, non-hazardous waste from a Traveller site. A supplier seeking to compete for a similar requirement would need practical capability in rubbish clearance, safe handling and treatment or disposal of non-hazardous refuse, and the operational capacity to attend council-managed sites in Bristol. TOM'S RUBBISH CLEARANCE LIMITED is recorded as an SME, showing that the work was delivered by a smaller specialist provider rather than necessarily requiring a national waste-management business. Relevant evidence would include experience of fly-tipping clearance, dependable response and completion arrangements, and suitable waste-treatment or disposal capability. The buyer’s use of a below-threshold direct-award route also identifies the scale and procurement approach associated with this requirement.
