Description

The Council, as the Waste Disposal Authority (WDA) for Hertfordshire, has procured a number of long-term contracts for the disposal of residual LACW. The recent procurement resulted in the award of six contracts that will commence in April 2024 and run for a period of 10 years with the option to extend, for up to a further five years. The contracts contain an option for bulky waste for occasions when shredding facilities are not available. All delivery points for residual waste are outside of Hertfordshire and therefore, there is a requirement for the Council to bulk Local Authority Collected Waste (LACW) at transfer stations prior to onward transportation to the disposal facilities. Details of awarded contracts can be found in Appendix 1.To facilitate this approach the Council is developing a network of Waste Transfer Stations (WTS) to serve the county. This network includes a number of existing and planned facilities as set out in the PPME Documentation

Participation in the PPME will be at each organisation’s own cost. No expense in responding to this PPME will be reimbursed by the Council.Further information can be found within the attached documentation.
