The main stream of our industrial waste stems from our building and refurbishment works and as such we require to be given access to a waste transfer station facility in order for us to deposit all the waste products arising from our work in our properties.
It is estimated that will produce some 3 000 tonnes of a mix of inert/landfill type of waste and active/incinerator type of waste per annum plus the waste from our offices including confidential waste, disposal of tyres, fridge freezers and electrical waste computers etc.
Vela would require contractors to carry out all waste removal in the Borough of Stockton on Tees and Hartlepool covering the following services which will include but not be limited to:-
This contract opportunity is broken down into 5 lots comprising of:
Lot 1: General Waste/Refuse Disposal/Recycling,
Lot 2: Office Confidential Waste/Recycling,
Lot 3: Additional Waste/Refuse Disposal/Recycling,
Lot 4: Ad hoc skips,
Lot 5: Access to Waste Transfer Station Facility.
Tenderers should be aware that at the present time Vela Group is operating from locations in both Hartlepool and Stockton On Tees, however there is the potential within the first 18 months of the contract that a central distribution building will become live which will cater for all waste generated by our works division in relation to skips. Therefore the successful contractor will focus on collection and delivery of skips in a more central location.
You must complete the ITT questionnaire and provide all the documents that are requested in the questionnaire. Failure to provide the requested documents will result in your tender failing. Your tender submission should not be qualified in any way.
This contract is a 3 year with the option to extend by 1 x 12 month and 1 x 12 month periods
