S--SAGU SOLID WASTE AND RECYCLE COLLECTION

The National Park Service is seeking a service contract to collect solid waste and recyclable waste from Saguaro National Park. The contract will be for a base year with four option years and a 6-month extension. The contractor will be responsible for collecting waste from two districts within the park. The government has provided estimates of the annual waste collection, with approximately 700 cubic yards of solid waste and 900 cubic yards of commingled recycling. The contractor will need to provide pricing for the base year and each option year, as well as the 6-month extension. Some key points to consider: • The government has experienced some missed recycling pickups in the past, but no missed trash pickups. • The contractor will need to dispose of contaminated recycling loads as solid waste, but the government does not have flexibility to pay separate fees outside of the contract. • The contract includes an option to extend services for up to 6 months. • The government has provided a revised price schedule for the contractor to use.
