Reading Borough Council (The Council) has a legal duty to collect and dispose of household waste and undertake recycling. The Council operates this waste collection service internally and owns a fleet of 13 freighters. The Council also operates a number of additional large and/or specialist vehicles, including tippers, accessible vehicles, gully clearers & street sweepers, with a number of specialist options/modifications installed. In an effort to secure financial savings, the Council now seeks an experienced and competent service provider/s to service, maintain, recover, repair, carry out statutory inspections and provide professional advice for a fleet of approximately 74 vehicles as described above.
