The range is expected to include recycling stations, litter bins and other waste receptacles for office, education and local authority settings, as well as outdoor bins for parks, countryside locations, pedestrianised areas and other public spaces. The framework is intended to give public sector organisations access to these products. The buying organisation is YPO, and the stated delivery country is the United Kingdom. This is a goods procurement covering waste and rubbish containers and bins. The process is at the planning stage: YPO is undertaking preliminary market engagement to inform a possible re-procurement, and there is no invitation to tender at this stage. YPO expects to advertise the engagement in October 2026, with responses due by 6 November 2026. It expects a future procurement notice on 1 February 2027. The estimated value is £1.4 million excluding VAT (£1.68 million including VAT). The intended arrangement is a framework, with one lot and a planned term from 1 August 2027 to 31 July 2029; the term may extend to 31 July 2031. YPO reserves the right not to proceed with a later procurement. The engagement is relevant to manufacturers, distributors and other suppliers of indoor and outdoor bins, recycling stations, litter bins and related waste receptacles. YPO is seeking supplier views on market conditions and trends, product developments and innovation, sustainability and environmental issues, changes in legislation and regulation, commercial arrangements and pricing, and customer needs and product availability. Suppliers with knowledge of public-sector use in offices, education, local authorities and outdoor public spaces will have relevant market insight to contribute. Small and medium-sized businesses are identified as suitable for the planned procurement. Engagement responses are for market research, not future tender evaluation, and taking part will not give a supplier an advantage in the later competition. ## Notice Under the Procurement Act 2023, YPO is undertaking preliminary market engagement in preparation for the re-procurement of Framework 1155 Indoor & Outdoor Bins. The current framework provides public sector organisations with access to a range of indoor and outdoor bins, recycling stations, litter bins and associated waste receptacle products. The purpose of this exercise is to gather supplier feedback and market intelligence to inform the replacement framework. YPO is seeking feedback on: - Current market conditions and trends. - Product developments and innovation. - Sustainability and environmental considerations. - Relevant legislative and regulatory changes. - Commercial arrangements and pricing approaches. - Customer requirements and product availability. The outcomes of this engagement will be used to support the development of a replacement framework that continues to meet the needs of public sector customers while reflecting current market conditions and best practice. A preliminary market engagement questionnaire has been prepared to support this exercise. Responses will be used for market research purposes only and will not form part of any future tender evaluation. Please see below link to the questionnaire: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/MXE3Wrg3Yn Participation in this engagement exercise will not confer any advantage in any future procurement process. Any future procurement opportunity will be conducted in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023. Preliminary market engagement is expressly permitted under Sections 16 and 17 of the Act, provided that competition is not distorted and suppliers are treated fairly. YPO reserves the right not to proceed with any subsequent procurement exercise. Information provided during this engagement is being sought without prejudice and without commitment. ### Planning Information The PME will be advertised in October 2026 for the supply of indoor and outdoor bins suitable for office, educational and local authority environments, together with outdoor litter and recycling bins designed for parks, countryside locations, pedestrianised areas and other public spaces. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/095145-2026 | | Notice type | UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 8 Oct 2026 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 1 Feb 2027 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Aug 2027 - 31 Jul 2029 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1,400,000 | | 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 | YPO | | Locality | WAKEFIELD | | Postcode area | Wakefield | | Postcode | WF2 0XE | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE4 West Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE45 Wakefield | | Local authority | Wakefield | | Electoral ward | Wrenthorpe and Outwood West | | Westminster constituency | Wakefield and Rothwell | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 34 - Transport equipment and auxiliary products to transportation ### Codes - 34928480 - Waste and rubbish containers and bins ## Release History - 8 Oct 2026 at 12:04 - Planning - UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/095145-2026 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/095145-2026 8th October 2026 - Preliminary market engagement notice on Find a Tender ## Notice URLs - https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/MXE3Wrg3Yn - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
