## Summary

Castle Point Borough Council, in coordination with Brentwood Borough Council, has announced plans for a public procurement process concerning services for a Waste Transfer Station, Haulage, and Materials Recycling Facility for Dry Mixed Recycling. This initiative involves the procurement of services within the refuse and waste-related sector across the region of UKH in the United Kingdom. Currently, in the planning stage, this procurement invites suppliers to engage in a preliminary market engagement. Interested parties can access the necessary documents and questionnaires on the e-Delta tendering portal by 25 November 2025. The project foresees a contract starting from 1 December 2026, with completion anticipated by 30 November 2031, and potential renewal extending until 2036.

This tender opens substantial opportunities for businesses within the waste management industry, particularly those offering innovative recycling solutions. Companies specialised in waste transfer and material recovery can significantly benefit, with opportunities tailored to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs). The strategic location requirements for waste processing facilities and adherence to modern recycling standards present robust avenues for eco-friendly businesses to contribute to the councils' commitments to cost-efficiency and carbon reduction. Vendors capable of innovating paper, plastics, and clingfilm recycling processes may find notable growth potential through participation in these contracts.

## Notice

Castle Point Borough Council (CPBC) are seeking to engage with the market to receive feedback on various aspects in relation to the Provision of a waste transfer station (WTS), haulage and Materials Recycling Facility (MRF) services for the borough's dry mixed recycling requirements (excluding glass). This is to ensure the opportunity to ensure that they are understood by the market and are fully deliverable. Expressions of Interest are also required. From Autumn 2026, CPBC will implement a new separate paper and card collection service in disposable sacks. CPBC will also collect plastics, cans and clingfilm in a disposable sack to meet compliance with Simpler Recycling and also provide the best possible value of the material. The MRF element will require the functionality to separate and recycle the disposable sacks where they will not have an adverse implication of the value of the material collected. Two options are being considered: 1. Delivery by Refuse Collection Vehicle to a MRF, or 2. Delivery by Refuse Collection Vehicle to a WTS, then hauled to a MRF For either option, the location where the CPBC vehicles are to deliver the recycling must be within the boundary of the borough, or within six (6) miles of it. * CPBC imposes this distance restriction in relation to the tipping location for its Refuse Collection Vehicles to maintain its current resource levels for domestic and trade collections. If CPBC considered extending the current distance restriction, this could impact on its operation, both commercially and environmentally. * CPBC has a new Waste and Recycling strategy (2025-2029), which has five key principles, one of these being to reduce cost for taxpayers, and another reducing its carbon footprint. To increase the distance restriction would also impact on these deliverables adversely. Although the PME document focuses on the Castle Point contract, Brentwood Borough Council has a similar requirement for a contract starting at the same time, the same duration and value. This means that one Tender Notice for both opportunities is likely to be published in one procurement with two (2) Lots and two (2) separate contracts. When ready, a separate PME document in relation to Brentwood will be sent to interested suppliers responding to the Castle Point PME questionnaire. Further information is available within the full PME document located in the e-Delta tendering portal via access code 2C6KJ8PN4Z.

### Planning Information

Interested suppliers can obtain the Pre Market Engagement document in the e-Delta tendering portal via access code 2C6KJ8PN4Z.
The document includes a questionnaire for interested suppliers to complete and send to the email address provided in the documents by 5pm on Tuesday 25 November 2025.
