About

West Lothian Council awarded a contract to Levenseat Ltd and Forth Resource Management Ltd for the handling and processing of food waste, garden waste, and co-mingled food and garden waste generated within West Lothian.

The contract, valued at £3,022,407.39, was awarded through a mini competition under the Scotland Excel Framework for the Treatment of Organic Waste (ref 0816).

The initial term is 4 years up to 31st March 2023, with an option to extend for up to a further 3 years.

The contract covers three lots: Lot 1 Food Waste, Lot 2 Garden Waste, and Lot 3 Co-mingled food and garden waste.

Outputs from the treatment process intended for use as compost or fertiliser must conform to PAS 100 or PAS 110 certification.

The Authority is implementing efficiencies, including the cessation of separate kerbside food waste collection from households around September 2019, transitioning to co-mingled collection in brown bins, and the cessation of kerbside commercial food waste collection from non-Authority premises from 1st April 2019.
