Waste Management Services

Initially for the Port of Liverpool (Mersey Docks and Harbour Company Limited - MDHC) and the Port of Manchester (The Manchester Ship Canal Company Limited - MSCC), with the opportunity to extend to other Ports given the right conditions, A total waste management solution is required to ensure both that Peel Ports legal requirements continue to be met, and that the environmental impact of the waste generated is minimised.

The Supplier of the waste management Services will be required to store, remove, process, transport and ultimately dispose of all of the waste generated with the Peel Ports. This shall include the supply of all equipment, plant, containers, vehicles, IT equipment, materials, labour and incidentals to facilitate the delivery of the Services.

The Services shall be provided by staff who have been given regular training which is appropriate to ensure that the Services are delivered safely and correctly with all reasonable skill and care.

The Supplier shall, in a timely manner, provide Waste Transfer Notes, Consignment Notes and any other waste collection documentation which is necessary to demonstrate that waste is being managed in a compliant manner.

Specifically for Lot 2 – On-Site Waste Management and Recycling Facility (OSWM) - In order to maximise the Port of Liverpool’s recycling performance and minimise the number of waste collections required, the Supplier is to establish, manage and operate a day shift on-site waste management and recycling facility.

With dedicated staff to provide the Services, the Supplier will collect waste from the respective storage locations on the Port and bring it back to a central facility where the waste will be sorted into different waste streams maximising recycling and revenue generation (for example woods and metals). Compaction for disposal purposes, shall be used wherever it is optimal, both operationally and economically.

Where it’s not economic to do so (likely to be locations that are not based on the Port of Liverpool), traditional bin and skip collection to permitted waste management facilities will continue to be provided. Additional information: Only one of the two lots will be awarded (as they both meet the same ultimate need). Whichever lot is awarded, the other shall be discontinued.
