Dumfries and Galloway Council has successfully completed the procurement process for the "Waste Haulage" contract, which involves the transportation of waste materials internally between various council sites and externally to third-party waste treatment contractors. The contract, valued at £2,165,220, was awarded to Oakbank Waste Management Ltd. and became active on 25th July 2025. The contracting process was conducted under an open procedure, focusing on General Public Services in the region of Dumfries & Galloway, with the main category being services. The completion of this procurement process marks the transition from the award stage to an active contract phase, following a tender period that concluded on 10th June 2025.

This tender opens up significant opportunities for businesses in the waste management and transport sectors, particularly those possessing the relevant licences to operate in this industry. The open procurement method encourages participation from small to medium enterprises, evidenced by five out of six bids being from SMEs.
