Waste Management Contracts and Tenders

See open waste management tenders and awarded contracts for the UK public sector.

Waste management procurement covers kerbside refuse, recycling and food waste collection, garden waste treatment, recycling centres and transfer stations, and onward haulage, reprocessing and disposal. Clinical, hazardous and radioactive waste, energy from waste and materials recovery facilities also appear, with skips, caddies, compactors and collection vehicles.

Collection and disposal are long contracts, with skip hire and disposal frameworks, NEPO's framework for specialist vehicles and waste caddies, and market engagement before re-lets. Councils and waste authorities buy collection and disposal; NHS trusts, universities, housing associations and nuclear bodies tender their sites' waste.
