## Summary

The Blackpool Council is looking for a single supplier to manage and deliver the "Bulky Matters" service, a bulky household items collection initiative that operates across Blackpool and Wyre. This procurement falls under the waste management services category and is classified as an open procedure. The contract, awarded with a total value of £684,700, is set to commence from 1 October 2021 and run until 30 September 2023, with a possible two-year extension subject to review. The deadline for submitting tenders was 12 July 2021.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the waste management and recycling sectors, especially those experienced in managing bulky item collections and recycling processes. Companies with capabilities in re-use and recovery, along with a strong operational presence in the North West of England, would be ideal candidates to compete for this contract. The requirement to lease the Recycling Buildings in Blackpool further opens avenues for partnerships and collaborations in the local community.
