Description

Wigan Council is seeking a supplier to provide compostable seven litre caddy liners for use within resident's kitchen caddies. Currently residents use either five or seven litre caddies.
The provider will need to supply approximately 18,000-19,000 rolls of liners per month, delivered to the Makerfield Way Depot in Wigan. These liners are then distributed to residents by our waste collection crews.
Liners are also picked up by residents on request from our Wigan and Leigh Life Centres (libraries). A small number of liners (approximately 400 rolls) per week are required by our Wigan Life Centre (Library). The library has a relatively small storage space so ideally around 1500-2000 liners should be delivered monthly.
Leigh Life Centre only uses a very small number of liners (around 20 rolls per week). Around 500 rolls may be delivered to cover the six month period.
The contract is expected to run for one year from 1st October 2025 to 30th September 2026. This includes a 12-14 week lead time with the first monthly delivery of caddy liners expected to by mid-January 2026.
