Brief

Leicestershire County Council seeks temporary waste disposal services to address an urgent operational challenge. A key treatment facility serving the Market Harborough and Kibworth area is temporarily unavailable due to capacity and off-take issues, creating significant pressure on the waste management system during peak demand. The Council requires an immediate alternative outlet for household and recycling waste to maintain service delivery and operational efficiency. This is a short-term engagement expected to last approximately four weeks while the primary facility resolves its constraints. Due to the urgent nature of this requirement and lack of prior notice, the Council is seeking a direct award arrangement with an experienced waste management provider capable of accepting and processing diverted waste streams on an emergency basis. Suppliers should demonstrate immediate availability, sufficient processing capacity, and experience handling high-volume waste throughput.
