## Summary

Leicester City Council is currently conducting an open procurement process for the provision of shipping containers, specifically aimed at enhancing storage capacity to support waste reduction initiatives. The tender, titled "PAN1944 - Shipping container," invites suppliers to submit quotations by 15 June 2018. The contract will span nine months, starting from 1 July 2018 to 31 March 2019, and falls under the goods category, classified primarily as transport equipment and auxiliary products to transportation.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for businesses in the transportation and logistics sector, particularly those specialising in the supply of shipping containers or racking systems. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the council anticipates awarding the contract to multiple suppliers, potentially fostering collaborations that could enhance both local service capacity and business growth.

## Notice

Leicester City Council (the Authority) invites quotations for the provision of shipping container(s) including delivery and the fitting of racking in the container. Leicester City Council is committed to where possible encouraging residents to reuse waste and prevent items from entering the waste stream. As part of this we work with a third sector partner LOROS who operate a reuse shop on the site of our Household Waste Recycling Centre at Gypsum Close. This year we are working with them to increase the volume of small electric and electronic goods that they can process, test and sell and to do this we need to provide essential additional storage capacity, through the addition of a new large (20ft by 8ft) shipping container. The proposed contract will be for nine months. We anticipate awarding to multiple Suppliers.
