NIGP 99848: Garbage, Sale of Surplus and Obsolete Items

NIGP 99848 Garbage, Sale Of Surplus And Obsolete Items is an Item code under which state and local governments procure waste collection, transportation, and disposal services — including residential and commercial solid waste pickup, yard waste management, recycling collection and single-stream recyclables transport, and dumpster rental and maintenance. Recent solicitations show municipalities and counties contracting for polyethylene trash and recycling bags meeting ASTM durability and performance standards; exclusive residential and commercial waste management covering thousands of service units over multi-year terms; as-needed transportation of commingled recyclables from county facilities to processing centers; and front-load dumpster rental with scheduled pickup at multiple government facilities. The issuing bodies include city purchasing departments (Richardson, New Smyrna Beach, Florida), county boards of commissioners (Pasco County, Florida; White County, Georgia), and special-purpose waste management districts. Contracts range from single-vendor requirements agreements to multi-award, as-needed transportation vehicles, with terms spanning one to ten years and performance evaluated on price, qualifications and experience, compliance with specifications, and references.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia.
