Non-Domestic Community Waste and Recycling Collection and Disposal Services (Smart Solutions)

M379_21
Status: Active

Smart Solutions, powered by ESPO, is a collection of agreements that have been developed to allow the public sector the chance to benefit from over 40 years’ worth of experience within procurement. If you are a public sector organisation, please browse our ESPO frameworks.

This Smart Solutions agreement provides access to a wide range of waste and recycling collection and disposal services covering different types of waste streams including general waste, paper and cardboard, metals and plastic, glass and mixed recycling.

The framework also covers a food waste collection and recycling service which offers customers yet further opportunity to both reduce costs (by diverting food waste from landfill) whilst helping meet their environmental aspirations by supporting the zero waste to landfill initiative.

Lot listing chevron-down

The framework is divided into the following lots:

Lot 1 General Waste

Lot 1 is for the provision of general waste collection and disposal services. This non-recyclable waste may include but not be limited to items that cannot be processed with standard recycling, such as soft plastics (crisp packets, cling film), food-soiled paper (tissues, kitchen roll, food boxes), polystyrene, nappies, sanitary products, pet waste, broken glass and ceramics.

Lot 2 Paper and Cardboard Recycling

Lot 2 is for the provision of paper and cardboard recycling services.

Lot 3 Metals and Plastic Recycling

Lot 3 is for the provision of metals and plastic recycling services.

Lot 4 Glass Recycling

Lot 4 is for the provision of glass recycling services.

Lot 5 Mixed Recycling

Lot 5 is for the provision of mixed recycling services. Mixed recyclable materials are likely to include a combination of certain materials such as paper, cardboard, glass, plastic, aluminium/steel cans and waxed cardboard (Tetra Pak), but they will exclude those materials that would knowingly cause contamination, such as wood.

Lot 6 Food Waste

Lot 6 is for the provision of food waste collection and disposal services.

Benefits chevron-down
  • For all lots the ‘lift prices’ are all inclusive so there are no hidden charges.
  • Customers are protected from being automatically charged for overweight bins because suppliers are only able to impose excess weight charges after three months of monitoring and where the receptacles are consistently overweight throughout this period.
  • Prior to contract commencement the customer is able to discuss and agree with suppliers their specific requirements in terms of their collection requirements (or collection schedule), such as service, receptacle size, quantity, collection frequency, collection points, site rules, restrictions, hazards, etc.
  • The framework also covers customer requirements for ad-hoc or emergency collection services to cope with unexpected volumes of waste or simply for those customers who do not require a scheduled arrangement.
