1-260155 2024-2025 Scrap Metal Payment Activity.xlsx

This is a Scrap Metal Payment Activity spreadsheet documenting the City of Wichita's scrap metal collection, removal, and disposal activities across various municipal departments for the 2024-2025 fiscal period. The document tracks scrap metal inventories generated by multiple city departments including Health, Public Works Maintenance, Water, Parks, Sewer Maintenance, Sewage Treatment, Transit, and Landfill operations. The primary products collected consist of tin (the predominant material), unprepared steel, HMS (Heavy Melting Steel), various brass types (red brass, semi-red brass, whole meter brass, and brass backing), copper products (including #2 copper and insulated copper wire), torch iron, and UBC (used beverage cans). During 2024, the city accumulated 667.195 net tons of scrap metal across all departments, with the 2025 portion totaling 606.762 net tons, resulting in a combined two-year total of 1,273.95 net tons. The spreadsheet provides granular line-item detail of individual collection events by department and product type, with quantities measured in either net tons (NT) or pounds (LB) depending on the material classification.

The document serves as a payment activity record rather than a bidding solicitation document, providing the historical inventory data that informs the City of Wichita's Request for Bid for scrap metal collection, removal, and disposal services. This activity report demonstrates the scale and composition of materials requiring vendor services, with tin representing the largest volume category across both years. Health Department operations generated the most scrap metal inventory, followed by PW-Maintenance and Water departments. The detailed itemization by department and material type enables prospective bidders to accurately forecast collection requirements, pricing structures, and logistical planning for the competitive procurement process.
