Summary of the contracting process

Dacorum Borough Council is seeking a waste haulage and transfer service. The contractor will transfer fly-tipping waste and arrange the transfer and disposal of commercial waste and other waste materials. This is a waste management service (CPV 90500000). The buyer is Dacorum Borough Council, and the service is for the council; the procurement gives Hemel Hempstead as the council’s address but does not identify a separate delivery location.

The council invited tenders through an open procedure. The enquiry deadline was 21 October 2026 at 5pm, and the submission deadline was 5 November 2026 at 12 noon. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2030, with an option to extend by one further year, to 31 March 2031. The estimated value is £300,000 excluding VAT (£360,000 including VAT); the description also states an expected annual budget of £80,000. Evaluation weights are price 65%, quality 30% and social value 5%. The council says a previous below-threshold tender was abandoned and that exercise informed this procurement. Payment terms are 30 days.

This opportunity suits waste contractors able to collect and transfer fly-tipping waste and manage the transfer and disposal of commercial and other waste materials. Suppliers need the operational capacity to handle several waste streams and deliver an ongoing service for a borough council, with the ability to sustain delivery over a multi-year contract and, if extended, an additional year. Price carries the largest evaluation weight, while quality and social value also contribute to the decision, so bidders should be able to offer competitive pricing alongside a credible service approach and social-value commitments. The procurement description does not state specific accreditations, vehicle requirements, capacity thresholds or experience criteria.
