Norway – Refuse transport services – Framework agreement transport services ReMidt IKS

ReMidt IKS is an intermunicipal company with 17 owner municipalities in Trøndelag and Møre og Romsdal. The company is owned by Aure, Averøy, Frøya, Heim, Hitra, Kristiansund, Melhus, Midtre Gauldal, Oppdal, Orkland, Rennebu, Rindal, Smøla, Skaun, Sunndal, Surnadal and Tingvoll.ReMidt took over operative responsibility from 1 January 2020 and provides services to inhabitants and municipal entities, mainly connected to household waste and sludge. There are hardly 130,000 inhabitants living in the owner municipalities. In addition, the company barely serves 30,000 cottages and holiday homes in these municipalities. ReMidt operates 22 recycling stations and 6 reloading halls per June 2025. The objective of the procurement is to enter into a contract for transport services between recycling stations and reloading halls, swapping and emptying hook containers, as well as transporting sludge in containers to treatment facilities. The contracting authority would also like tenders for transport services for moving and outset of bottom emptying containers in our municipalities. Parts of the service will require that tenderers can use cranes. The service will be included as an option in the contract. In 2025 the total number of transports was sufficient to employ an average of 3-5 vehicles with trailers full-time per lot. Traditionally, cupboard vehicles have mainly been used from reloading halls, whilst hook containers have mainly been used from recycling stations. This distribution is subject to ongoing evaluation and will be subject to change over the coming years. ReMidt IKS reserves the right, in other words, to freely use hook or cabinet transport at relevant destinations. The estimated scope is stated for the sub-contracts together. Historically, the total need for transport services has been divided between approx. 65%/35% for sub-contract 1 and sub-contract 2. This will be subject to change during the coming contract period. Historical distribution of tonnage is stated in Annex 1 Requirement Specifications.Further description of the procurement is also in the requirement specification (Annex 1).
