UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Sheffield City Council is seeking a vehicle removal and storage service in Sheffield. Vehicles may be removed because they obstruct highway works, are dangerously or unlawfully parked, or are associated with persistent parking or Clean Air Zone enforcement evasion. The service also covers vehicles in disabled bays without authorisation, untaxed vehicles, and enforcement linked to events and temporary traffic regulation orders. The work includes recovery of cars and commercial vehicles and vehicle-fleet management. Suppliers need to provide the operational service for the council’s range of enforcement and highway-related requirements.

The council invited offers through an open competition. The contract is a single lot, with an estimated value of £150,000 excluding VAT (£180,000 including VAT). The contract period runs from 20 December 2026 to 19 December 2030. The deadline for questions was 30 October 2026 at 17:00, and the bid submission deadline was 9 November 2026 at 17:00. Electronic submission is allowed. Bids are evaluated equally on price and quality, each weighted at 50%. The opportunity is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This requirement suits vehicle recovery and roadside assistance operators able to remove and store vehicles, including cars and commercial vehicles, and to manage the associated fleet. Relevant experience may include supporting local-authority parking enforcement, highway works, event traffic arrangements and enforcement of temporary traffic restrictions. Suppliers should be equipped to handle varied cases, from dangerous or obstructive parking to untaxed vehicles and repeat enforcement evasion, including Clean Air Zone cases and unauthorised use of disabled bays. The stated suitability for smaller businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises indicates that the opportunity is not restricted to large suppliers. Price and quality carry equal weight, so bidders should be prepared to demonstrate both competitive delivery and a strong service offer.
