Text version

a. 6 cubic yard containers (quantity: 1) – is this a standard fel msw container?

b. 30 cubic yard container (quantity: 2) – does the customer own this equipment?

c. 8-yard front-end loading (FEL) single stream containers (quantity: 8)

d. 8 cubic yard containers (quantity: 2) – is this a standard fel msw container

All lid-type containers furnished under this contract shall be equipped with plastic lids to prevent refuse from blowing about the complex and onto neighboring lawns. All containers furnished under this contract shall be equipped with hinged doors, counter-balanced for ease of opening and with closing devices and handles. Doors must be located on containers for convenient use in loading either from loading dock or from ground level as required. Doors or lids to containers shall not be equipped with spring closing devices that will create a safety hazard. Containers will have wheel-locking devices; no type of loose wood or metal wedges shall be permitted - special order container - does this apply to all containers and is it mandatory?

Designated days between 8:00 am and 11:00 am – cannot guarantee service times, is this a deal breaker?

Should a container be blocked at the time of pickup, the Contractor will notify the COR and make a second attempt to pick up the container within 24 hours at no additional cost – driver can wait 5 mins, but if we must return the next day, there will be a charge.

d. Pickup Instructions:

1. All refuse pickups shall be executed without interruption of normal functions of the Medical Center.

The contractor agrees to furnish, at his own expense, all containers, vehicles, labor, and equipment and to perform all work required in accordance with th is contract without assistance from the Government.

2. Empty containers for compaction units 8, 20, and 40 cubic yards, will be installed before the full containers are removed from the premises. The containers will be watertight and leak-proof.

Contractor shall take measures to assure performance of all work requirements in all weather conditions. – no 40yd or 20yd listed on service schedule, is this a typo?
