The NAICS code 5622 covers Waste Treatment and Disposal services, encompassing a wide range of environmental management activities focused on handling, processing, and safely eliminating various types of waste materials. These services include hazardous and non-hazardous waste collection, transportation, treatment, and final disposal, with specialized approaches for different waste streams such as medical, chemical, radioactive, and industrial waste.

Federal contract awards in this category predominantly involve the Department of Veterans Affairs, Department of Defense, and other federal healthcare and military installations. The awards typically range from $50,000 to $500,000, with contract durations spanning one to five years. Many contracts are set aside for specific small business categories, including Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSB), and other socio-economic business classifications. Common places of performance include military bases, medical centers, research facilities, and government installations across the United States, with some international locations like Italy and Japan also represented.

Recent federal contract opportunities demonstrate a diverse range of waste management requirements, including medical waste disposal, hazardous waste removal, electronic equipment destruction, and specialized waste handling services. Federal agencies such as the Department of Veterans Affairs, Defense Logistics Agency, Department of the Air Force, and U.S. Coast Guard have posted solicitations seeking contractors to manage waste streams including regulated medical waste, tritium-containing equipment, electronic scrap, and industrial grit. Performance locations span multiple states, including California, Texas, North Dakota, Virginia, and Florida, with contract scopes ranging from small, specific site-based services to comprehensive regional waste management programs.
