The Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration awarded a single-award indefinite delivery contract to Tri-County Recycling Inc., a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business headquartered in Miami Lakes, Florida, for trash collection and waste management services at Fort Bliss National Cemetery in El Paso, Texas. The contract, with a ceiling value of $121,328, has a performance period from April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2031 (one-year base period with four optional one-year extensions). Tri-County Recycling will provide comprehensive solid waste management services including twice-weekly pickups of a six-yard dumpster (104 annual pickups), as-needed delivery and retrieval of 20-yard roll-off dumpsters (approximately 12 jobs annually), and as-needed delivery and retrieval of 30-yard roll-off dumpsters (approximately 5 jobs annually), with all on-call containers delivered within 24 hours of notification. The contractor must maintain strict sanitation standards including pressure-washing containers twice monthly during warm months and monthly during cooler months, quarterly steam-cleaning, and EPA-approved deodorization at certified disposal and recycling facilities.

Tri-County Recycling was selected through a lowest-priced technically acceptable evaluation methodology following a competitive solicitation posted February 10, 2026, designated as a 100 percent set-aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses under North American Industry Classification System code 562111.
