Bid Description:
Through this Request for Proposal (RFP) the Department of Buildings and General Services, Office of Purchasing and Contracting (hereinafter the “State”) is seeking to
establish contracts with one or more companies that can provide the State of Vermont and its agencies and departments with Trash removal, Recycling services, and Food Scrap Collection Services (to include mandated recyclables under 10 V.S.A. 6621a(9)). Trash removal and recycling services will be ordered
by the agency as required. Under the Universal Recycling Law (ACT 148), all haulers must provide for collection of recyclables effective July 1, 2015 and by July 1, 2020 haulers must offer collection of food scraps to nonresidential customers and apartment buildings with four or more residential units unless
another hauler will provide that service. In addition, in order to be in compliance with the disposal ban on leaf and yard debris effective July 1, 2016, the State requests collection of leaf and yard debris on an “as needed” basis. A vendor may bid on one or more locations in which they can provide all rubbish and
recycling services and food scrap collection as indicated, or sub-contract out one or more services in order to ensure collection is provided for all three material streams. As of July 1, 2020, Vermont state law bans disposal of all food scraps in the trash or landfills (including any trash that is transported to an out of
state landfill or incinerator. Trash haulers must offer food scrap collection services, unless another hauler is willing to provide that service (for them). Additionally, the State seeks information from companies and organizations as to locations with licensed landfills and/or transfer stations at which the State would be able to sometimes deliver solid waste and/or recycling in bulk.
