The provision of recycling and waste collection services including destruction of confidential wastepaper from Shropshire Council owned/run sites

Shropshire Council is seeking a waste management service provider to collect recycling and residual waste from approximately 35 council-owned and operated sites across Shropshire, with weekly or fortnightly collection frequencies, and to provide secure destruction of confidential wastepaper as instructed. The contractor must segregate waste streams including dry-mixed recycling, food waste, and non-recyclable waste, operate flexibly across 20, 40, or 52-week service periods, and support the council's sustainability and waste hierarchy objectives. The council anticipates awarding a single, longer-term supplier contract to deliver consistent, cost-effective service provision aligned with environmental goals.
