Description

Southwest Minnesota State University (SMSU) is seeking a qualified vendor to provide comprehensive refuse and recycling removal services for its Marshall, Minnesota campus for the period July 1 2026 – June 30 2029 (with a possible 24‑month extension). The contract requires weekly refuse collection, single‑sort recycling, on‑demand pickups, container management, spill cleanup, quarterly waste‑diversion reporting, and compliance with local noise ordinances and state environmental regulations. Evaluation heavily weights cost/value (35 %) and the vendor’s waste‑operations/sustainability plan (30 %). The university may adjust container quantities or service frequencies with 14‑day notice, and overage charges are capped at 50 % of the container lift cost.

Budget estimate

$500,000 – $1,500,000

The contract covers 30‑plus campus locations with a mix of 1.5‑, 3‑, 6‑, and larger roll‑off containers, weekly pickups, on‑demand service, and quarterly reporting. Assuming an average base rate of $250 per container per month (typical for university contracts) and roughly 50 active containers, annual base revenue would be about $150,000. Adding fees for on‑demand pickups, roll‑offs, reporting, and contingency allowances can raise the total to roughly $500k‑$1.5 million over the three‑year base term. Extensions could increase the high end.
