In plain English
Highland Council needs a haulage (transport) company to collect food waste from their Longman Waste Transfer Station and deliver it to a treatment facility. This is a straightforward waste transport contract worth around £975,000.
What the buyer wants
• Collect food waste from Longman Waste Transfer Station on a regular schedule • Transport it to an approved food waste treatment facility • Ensure compliance with food waste handling and environmental regulations • Provide reliable, scheduled haulage service
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: You must hold a valid Waste Carrier License from the Environment Agency or equivalent: without this, you cannot legally operate. Most small hauliers will be able to bid, but you need the right license, appropriate vehicles, and capacity to handle the contract volume (£975k suggests substantial regular rounds).
Always check the tender documents.
