Gosport Borough Council has received positive feedback from residents since handing over the contract for its refuse collection and cleansing to Urbaser, the waste collection, cleansing and treatment services provider.
 Urbaser's vehicle partner is contract hire and fleet management company, Specialist Fleet Services (SFS) and the 10-year contract encompasses refuse collection and street cleansing.
SFS is providing more than 30 vehicles, including seven Dennis Eagle rear steer RCVs (two standard width, and five narrow width), Scarab sweepers, tippers and various maintenance vehicles.
"We were very specific about what we were looking for and the whole process was transparent," comments Stevyn Ricketts, head of Streetscene, Gosport Borough Council. "Our aim is to deliver the contract under budget, and, because it is performance-related, it is in both parties interests to work efficiently."
Javier Peiro, director at Urbaser comments: "We have been working in this sector forover 20 years and we can bring new and innovative ways of working. We are also very grateful to our vehicle partners, SFS, whose in-depth knowledge and expertise was invaluable in securing the contract."
Bob Sweetland, managing director, SFS says: "We are delighted that Urbaser has chosen us as its vehicle partner for this prestigious contract. It's great to hear that the new and improved fleet is already having a positive impact on the collection and cleansing service in the Borough."
