Swansea Council is seeking to procure services for the collection and reprocessing of domestic mixed paper and cardboard collected at the kerbside plus baled cardboard collected via the Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRC’s) and commercial collections. The Council currently collects domestic mixed paper and cardboard at the kerbside from around 111,000 properties. Whilst we currently predominantly collect domestic mixed paper and cardboard in single-use plastic bags, we are in the process of changing to using reuseable bags, due to commence in Spring 2025. The roll-out of reusable containers will be phased throughout the County which will result in a reduction of bagged product and increase in un-bagged product. The Pricing Schedule requires that a rate per tonne inclusive of collection, haulage, reprocessing/treatment, and disposal of rejects be submitted.
In 2023/24 a combined total of approximately 8,600 tonnes of mixed paper and cardboard was collected with single use plastic sacks used as a collection medium
In 2023/24 a combined total of approximately 8,600 tonnes of mixed paper and cardboard was collected with single use plastic sacks used as a collection medium. Residents requiring collection of large pieces of cardboard (boxes etc.) at the kerbside are requested to fold the material and place unbagged alongside the bags for collection, or alternatively deposit directly at one of our HWRC’s.
In 2023/24 the council collected around 2,600 tonnes of cardboard boxes from businesses throughout the county. The cardboard is baled and stored prior to collection by the re-processor
