two.1.4) Short description
Oldham Council currently has 1172 public street litter bins servicing the whole Borough, dispersed across each of its district centres, corridor gateways, main roads, estates. parks, cemeteries and countryside areas also contain litter bins; however, these bins are not included in this figure. The current make-up of these bins covers a wide variety of styles and sizes each having an impact which affects frequency of service and resources are assigned to this operation.
The service will move away from the current bin style of small metal lined units of 90 litre internal capacity with a proposed change to move to 240 litre bin housing units which will contain a large standard domestic refuse wheelie bin.
Its proposed to adopt a new style bin with only one singular aperture opening. Trial of a new design has already been tested across the Borough in areas where misuse has been identified. The new design eliminates the opportunity to force large bags into the bin by only having a limited sized aperture which can take singular pieces of litter up to and including full size pizza box.
In addition to the standard street bins, it is proposed to replace bins within Oldham Town Centre with a new (eco-friendly) solar powered type. The new bins which utilise solar power to power a compactor, allows a normal 240 litre wheelie bin to hold the capacity of a large commercial 1100 litre bin. These new bins incorporate modern software technology, utilising mobile networks which can update officers directly when they require emptying; this via a smart phone app which staff can access on work devices rather than attending daily.
Therefore, Oldham Council are looking to procure approximately 1200 Street Litter bin housings; however, this number may increase or decrease subject to needs and requirements. In addition we are also looking to procure 20 x 240ltr solar powered bins to complete this large scale replacement program.
