UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Sheffield City Council is seeking a provider for furniture removal, storage and disposal services covering both its corporate and housing services. Work includes moving office furniture between Council buildings during office moves, and removing, storing and/or disposing of furniture from Council homes when tenants move as part of a decant. Delivery is in Sheffield. The requirement combines furniture handling and storage with transport services, including the provision of goods-transport vehicles with drivers. It is intended to replace the Council’s existing services. Small and medium-sized businesses are considered suitable for this opportunity.

The Council invited offers through an open procedure. There is one lot. The tender enquiry deadline was 21 October 2026 at 11:00, and the submission deadline was 4 November 2026 at 16:00. The estimated contract period runs from 1 March 2027 to 28 February 2031, with an optional 12-month extension, to a maximum end date of 28 February 2032. The estimated value is £354,664 excluding VAT (£425,597 including VAT). Evaluation assigns 60% to price, 30% to quality and 10% to social value. Suppliers must pass legal and financial capacity assessments. The financial assessment checks whether the supplier’s and relevant relied-on subcontractors’ combined turnover meets the stated annual minimum and whether their accounts meet required ratios. Payment terms are 30 days.

This requirement may suit furniture removal, storage and transport businesses able to serve both public-sector office relocations and housing clearances. Delivery calls for the operational capability to move furniture between buildings and to remove items from Council properties, with capacity to store furniture where required and arrange disposal. Suppliers relying on subcontractors must identify them and show that they are eligible; where a subcontractor delivers an essential part of the contract or is relied on for capacity, a legally binding agreement is required. Financial resilience is also a condition of competition: suppliers and relevant relied-on subcontractors must collectively meet the specified annual turnover threshold and required financial ratios. Social value accounts for part of the evaluation, alongside price and service quality.
