Description

The Council anticipates purchasing approximately 12 Refuse Collection Vehicles (RCVs) to facilitate weekly food waste collections.

It is expected that the Council will require a mixture of 7.5T and 12T RCVs.

The exact number, size, specification and the required delivery date of the vehicles is currently unknown.

The requirement is for the out-right purchase of the vehicles. There is no requirement for hire or contract hire vehicles.
