The service is intended to maintain continuity of waste management while the site is unavailable. The work covers transporting refuse and disposing of household waste. Delivery is for Kingston upon Thames, in the London Borough of Kingston. This is a single service requirement, rather than a set of separate work packages. Suppliers in residual waste logistics and household waste treatment or disposal should assess whether they can provide an interim arrangement suited to the borough’s needs. This procurement is at the planning stage: Kingston has stated its intention to buy the service, but has not yet invited tenders. The buyer expects to issue a further notice on 16 October 2026. It has planned preliminary market engagement, inviting suppliers to comment on proposed tender documents through the London Tenders Portal by 8 October 2026; these are consultation dates, not bid deadlines. The estimated contract value is £3,937,961 excluding VAT (£4,725,553 including VAT). The planned service period runs from 1 July 2027 to 30 March 2028, with a possible extension to 30 June 2028. There is one lot, and the buyer has indicated that the requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized businesses. This requirement is likely to suit waste contractors able to arrange reliable transport and disposal of residual household waste for a local authority during an interim period. Suppliers with experience maintaining continuity of municipal waste services while infrastructure is unavailable may be well placed to respond. The scale calls for a service capable of handling borough-level residual waste needs, rather than a one-off collection or disposal job. Kingston is seeking supplier feedback on draft tender documents before the formal competition, giving providers an opportunity to help shape the proposed requirements through the planned engagement. The procurement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses, so suppliers of that size should consider whether their operational capacity, waste treatment or disposal routes, and logistics can meet the eventual service specification. No particular accreditation is stated in the planning information. ## Notice The closure of the Villiers Road Waste Transfer Station to enable redevelopment of the site will require Kingston to put in place interim arrangements for the management of residual waste. To ensure continuity of service, Kingston will need to procure an interim residual waste contract. ### Planning Information Suppliers are invited to complete questionnaire feedback regarding the proposed tender documents via the London Tenders Portal (https://www.londontenders.org), project reference: DN825981 ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/092795-2026 | | Notice type | UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 1 Oct 2026 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 16 Oct 2026 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Jul 2027 - 30 Mar 2028 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £3,937,961 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Planning | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | The Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames | | Locality | KINGSTON UPON THAMES | | Postcode area | Kingston upon Thames | | Postcode | KT1 1EU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI6 Outer London - South | | ITL 3 | TLI63 Merton, Kingston upon Thames and Sutton | | Local authority | Kingston upon Thames | | Electoral ward | Kingston Town | | Westminster constituency | Kingston and Surbiton | | Delivery location | TLI63 Merton, Kingston upon Thames and Sutton | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 90512000 - Refuse transport services - 90513100 - Household-refuse disposal services ## Release History - 1 Oct 2026 at 12:14 - Planning - UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/092795-2026 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/092795-2026 1st October 2026 - Preliminary market engagement notice on Find a Tender ## Notice URLs - http://www.kingston.gov.uk - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents - https://www.londontenders.org ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
