The contract is divided into two lots: the acquisition of a new baler valued at GBP 500,000 and the maintenance of the baler and associated equipment valued at GBP 22,000. Businesses with expertise in high-quality recycling equipment and maintenance, including those offering innovative leasing options, will find this tender suitable. The tender's focus on quality (70% for the baler and 60% for maintenance) and price ensures that businesses delivering top-tier services can compete favourably.

## Notice

Mid Devon District Council's Kerbside Recycling Service is expanding due to an increase in properties and associated increase in recyclable materials following the successful implementation of our Bin-it 123 collections. We therefore need a new baler which will enable us to future proof the service against further increases. We currently collect a variety of dry recycling materials on a fortnightly basis, which are sorted at kerbside. We are looking to purchase a new baler to be installed at our depot in Willand, which will serve both our current and future needs. Our current system automatically sorts co-mingled Mixed Plastic/steel and aluminium cans. We also have a sorting platform to enable manual separation of contaminants. A visit to site will be arranged for any companies interested in this tender. A maintenance contract is also need for the Baler and associated equipment. This tender will be in two Lots.
