## Summary

The procurement process for Hartlepool Borough Council involves a completed contract for sorting, processing, and selling dry recycling material resources, with J&B Recycling awarded as the supplier. The main industry category is services, specifically focusing on refuse recycling services, with delivery within the United Kingdom's UKC11 region.
