Description

The contractor will provide drop-off recycling services at seven potential sites, including scheduled collection, hauling, processing, and marketing of aluminum and tin cans, glass containers, plastics, newsprint, cardboard, and mixed paper. The County supplies the containers. Pickups are scheduled one to two times monthly, depending on the site, and the contractor must remove spilled or out-of-container recyclables and keep containers available. Recyclables may not be sent to a landfill; the contractor must be able to certify that materials were recycled. The contractor also collects incidental refuse during each recycling pickup. The contractor must submit quarterly weight records for each site and provide recycling receipts or certification when requested. Bids use the County's bid form and include itemized pricing per pickup for each site, with an optional alternative bid for one location. A one-year contract may be renewed for two additional years. Performance and payment bonds, each at 100% of the contract amount, are required after contract execution; insurance requirements include general liability, automobile liability, workers' compensation, excess liability, and builder's risk.
