Summary of the contracting process

Dundee City Council commissioned a community reuse service in Dundee, centred on Baldovie Household Waste Recycling Centre, with collections also taken from Riverside Household Waste Recycling Centre. The service covers unwanted furniture, white goods, mixed electrical appliances and bicycles. The provider must accept and sort donated bulky household waste, recover suitable items for reuse, refurbish items where possible, and provide the refurbished goods to customers. It must also facilitate or encourage community recycling groups in Dundee, helping to maximise reuse and reduce the amount of material sent for recycling or incineration. This is a waste recovery and reuse service, classified under CPV 90514000, with associated furniture and household goods collection or recovery activities.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following an open procedure. One lot was awarded to Tayside Re-Users, an SME, and the contract is active. The tender deadline and bid opening were both 8 June 2026 at 12:00. The contract was signed on 14 July 2026. The recorded contract value is £0.01. The initial contract period is 720 days, with a 12-month extension option. The requirement was evaluated against economic and financial capacity criteria. Suppliers had to maintain employers’ liability, public liability and product liability insurance of £10 million for each claim, demonstrate financial soundness and achieve an Equifax score of at least 35. One electronic bid was received, from an SME. A further procurement is intended after three years if the extension is used.

This opportunity indicates a defined demand from Dundee City Council for operators that can run practical community reuse services across household waste recycling centres. A credible competitor would need the operational capacity to receive, sort, assess, store and refurbish bulky household goods, electrical appliances and bicycles, then make reusable items available to customers. Experience in waste recovery, reuse, refurbishment or community recycling would be directly relevant, particularly where it demonstrates safe handling, reliable site operations and the ability to minimise disposal. Strong links with local community recycling groups would support delivery of the wider social and environmental purpose. Businesses would also need robust financial standing and substantial employers’, public and product liability insurance, with the capacity to meet the specified cover for each claim.
