The Core Requirements under this Contract are defined but not limited to:
•Collection and haulage of seized goods, in various size(s) and quantities, from the point of collection and transportation to a secure storage facility;
•In addition, the Contractor in some cases will need to provide the relevant equipment for specialist removal where high value goods are being seized and, where able, immediate (on the day) valuation advice i.e. pieces of art work from a wall, removal of vehicles etc. Where valuations cannot be made immediately, that valuation is received within 1 month of seizure date.
•Where there is a court date imminent, that these valuations are expedited and provided to HMRC within 5 working days (to ensure all evidence is collated prior to the court date).
•The secure storage of seized goods on behalf of the Client whilst awaiting further instructions (typically for valuation, disposal, sale and/or movement to another facility).

The demands on the Contractor will vary and will be dependent on the different types and values of the items that are seized.
