Domestic Appliances Tenders and Contracts

A domestic appliances contract covers fridges, freezers, washing machines, cookers, ovens, dishwashers and other white goods bought for supply, delivery and installation into housing and care settings. It also includes the collection and recycling of large domestic appliances at end of life.

Stotles brings together domestic appliances tenders and contracts from 100+ portals into one search, so you do not have to check each portal separately, and you can set alerts for new opportunities across the UK and Ireland.

If you want to search the government portals directly, Find a Tender carries higher-value contracts across the UK and Contracts Finder carries lower-value contracts in England. Public Contracts Scotland, Sell2Wales and eTendersNI cover Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, Ireland's eTenders covers Irish public bodies, and many councils, NHS bodies and housing associations publish on their own e-tendering portals such as ProContract. White goods for welfare schemes are often called off from consortium frameworks for furniture and appliances, and councils let crisis support schemes in lots by area.

Domestic appliances tenders are scored on price, delivery and installation times, product range and energy rating, removal and recycling of old items, and how vulnerable residents are supported. Welfare schemes are often split into lots by area, so suppliers can bid where they deliver.

Appliances must meet UK product safety and electrical safety rules, and suppliers collecting old appliances must follow the WEEE regulations and hold a waste carrier registration. Tenders usually set minimum insurance cover, check financial standing and ask for evidence of similar supply contracts at selection stage. Under the Procurement Act 2023, suppliers can be excluded for certain criminal convictions, insolvency or failure to pay tax.

Councils, housing associations and NHS trusts are regular buyers, often procuring through a regional or shared procurement body. They supply appliances into temporary accommodation, void properties, care schemes and hospital kitchens.

Read local welfare assistance and crisis fund plans, furnished tenancy scheme reviews, void property programmes and expiry dates for existing supply contracts, which show domestic appliances work coming due ahead of a notice. On Stotles you can track those signals and the buyers behind them, then follow a notice from pre-tender through to award.
