· Currently, there are a total of two bins/consoles, sizes 36 inches and 24 inches

· In addition, there are 5/6 96-gallon portable bins

*Please note, vendor shall supply all bins/consoles*

2. *New Question* Are all items in the table consoles or are some 96-gallon bins? Would it be possible to separate the two amounts?

· There is not an exact number differentiating the 36in and 24in consoles. The 5 to 6, 96-gallon portable bins are in the main hospital only and are kept in reserve for overflow usage, so consoles aren’t clogged. Example: A person retiring and cleaning out their office would use a portable bin to shred their old documents

· One person offices do not get a console, as consoles are available for all staff in office suites or wards. Positions that warrant a console in their office will have the smaller, 26in console. *Note: Private consoles are an exception, not the rule.

3. What is an estimate of how many pounds of paper or other items there will be for the locations requiring service?

· Pounds estimate is between 13 tons to 18 tons, (26,000-36,000 pounds) per month, for the main campus and CBOCs combined.

4. Would it be possible to extend the solicitation by a week?

· Response date is hereby extended to Friday, October 21, 2022, by 4:30 p.m.

*The main campus is 111 acres with several buildings, over 1,000,000 square feet*
