In plain English
Mid and East Antrim Borough Council wants a contractor to take, treat and recycle waste materials collected from five household recycling centres across the borough, keeping as much as possible out of landfill. The estimated value is £2,880,000.
What the buyer wants
• Receive waste from five council recycling centres in Ballymena, Carrickfergus, Larne, Glenarm and Ballycarry, through a licensed facility with a weighbridge. • Recycle or recover all non-contaminated waste, send non-recyclable material to energy recovery, and report quantities by material type, final destination and end use. • Provide the required dockets, certificates and evidence, including WAMITAB certification, as set out in the notice.
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The notice requires a licensed waste facility with a weighbridge, WAMITAB certification and detailed reporting, which would likely rule out small businesses without their own licensed processing site, and the notice text is cut off so further requirements may apply.
Always check the tender documents.
