Solid Waste Collection

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 562111 covers Solid Waste Collection, a specialized service category focused on the gathering, transportation, and disposal of non-hazardous solid waste from residential, commercial, and industrial locations. These services encompass waste removal using various container types such as dumpsters, roll-off containers, and compactors, and typically involve collection, transportation, and proper disposal or recycling of municipal solid waste. The services are critical for maintaining sanitary conditions and environmental compliance across multiple sectors.

Federal contract awards under this NAICS code demonstrate significant diversity, with contracts ranging from $1,500 to $644,300, and durations typically spanning one base year with four option years. Frequent awardees include small businesses such as Navajo Sanitation, Inc., Mid-Nebraska Disposal, and Republic Services subsidiaries, with major funding agencies including the Department of Veterans Affairs, Department of the Interior, and Department of Defense. Most awards utilize small business set-aside designations, particularly total small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, and Indian Economic Enterprise categories. Performance locations span nationwide, with notable concentrations in military installations, national parks, and federal healthcare facilities.

Recent federal contract opportunities under this NAICS code primarily seek comprehensive waste management services for government facilities, including trash and recycling collection, dumpster rental, and disposal services. Solicitations from agencies like the National Park Service, Department of the Army, Veterans Affairs, and Fish and Wildlife Service cover locations across the United States, including facilities in Arizona, Colorado, Kansas, Minnesota, and Oregon. Most opportunities are set aside for small businesses, with contract periods typically ranging from one to five years and emphasizing local waste management capabilities, environmental compliance, and specific service requirements tailored to each agency's unique operational needs.
