The Council would like to hear from relevant service providers in relation to food waste collection services provision from April 2028 onwards. The Council is open to how this new provision could be delivered. The indicative specification is formed from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs' (DEFRA) Simpler Recycling reform, which mandated in legislation (Environment Act 2021) that waste collection authorities (WCA) will be required to provide weekly food waste collections to all households. Melton Borough Council is a waste collection authority and therefore must comply with DEFRAs requirements. DEFRA have not officially advised on consequences to local authorities if they do not provide weekly food waste collections to households. It should be noted that this is a revised project following the Councils decision to delay implementation until April 2028. This soft market testing opportunity will assist the Council in developing the final requirements. Suppliers interested in taking part in this market engagement opportunity are requested to respond to the questionnaire located on the ProContract e-procurement portal. The deadline for submissions of this questionnaire is 12 noon Wednesday 13th May 2026. A Supplier event is also planned as part of this process; details of how to attend this event can also be found within the questionnaire documentation. https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=45626440-0e38-f111-813c-005056b64545&p=527b4bbd-5c58-e511-80ef-000c29c9ba21
