The brief

From April 2018, East Devon District Council will be collecting garden waste separately as part of their regular kerbside waste collection scheme.

This is anticipated to generate between 2500 and 5000 tonnes of garden waste which will require composing to PAS 100 standards or equivalent.

The Service required under the Contract will require the Contractor to provide a waste reception point within the District Council's administrative boundaries to which the District Council can deliver their separately collected garden waste.

The contractor shall then transport the same waste from the waste reception point to his waste composting point with a view to composting at least 90% of the waste delivered to it, producing and end-product that complies with PAS 100 standards or equivalent.
