    "description": "The Council are seeking a single provider to remove, transport and deliver various items of Furniture/Personal Belongings from one house premise to another or directly to the storage facility. The majority of removals will be within the Durham County area however, on occasion, addresses may fall outside of the County Durham area. Moves will include personal belongings for a domestic house including households of any size and where storage of such belongings may at times be required. The provider will be required to store possession from up to 50 houses at any one time.\nPlease note, the providers storage facility must be within 30 miles from the border of Durham County as it is essential to enable service users to access their belongings if required.\nPreliminary market engagement was undertaken in 2024, prior to a previously published tender, which was later withdrawn. No advantage has been obtained from suppliers who took part in the previous tender exercise as specification and document updates have been made. Further informal market engagement has been undertaken by the service area using potential bidder\u0027s websites to understand the market competition, capability of the market and pricing structures.",
