A two decade partnership between Liverpool Council and a furniture collection firm formally ends today.
Last month, the ECHO revealed that the local authority was moving to terminate its relationship with Bulky Bob’s - part of the FRC Group - having deemed its existing terms to no longer represent best value. Since 2000, the council has used the company to collect and dispose of large furniture items for residents across the city.
Distinctive purple trucks have been a regular sight in wards throughout Liverpool picking up pieces from outside homes. The latest seven-year contract between the two partners ends today after they were unable to reach an agreement.
