Invitation to tender for mowing of part of Saxtead Green for 2019 and the next 5 years.

The Green to be cut is the small triangle where the flagpole is - highlighted on the attached map. 

Please send tenders by email to: saxteadparishclerk@gmail.com

 

 Tenders to be received no later than 28th March 2019

Length of contract 

The Parish Council is willing to enter into a contract for the next five years. This is to provide the opportunity for a successful contractor to invest in the most suitable equipment. You will also have the option to quote for single year only if you wish.

Frequency of cutting

During the growing season (approx April- October) the Green requires regular mowing. The frequency of the cuts is dependent on the weather and the rate of growth of the grass, but we would not envisage more than 10 cuts being necessary. 

Please provide a cost per cut for your mowing services. 

Please confirm that you are covered by third party liability insurance with cover of £5 million. 

Please confirm that you accept responsibility for assessing and managing risks to yourselves and members of the public in the course of carrying out this work. 

We hope that you will be interested in tendering to carry out this work in 2019.
