Example Hauling Schedule - Organics Collection and Disposal Services

This document is an illustrative hauling schedule exhibit for the District of Columbia Department of General Services' Invitation for Bid (IFB No. DCAM-26-NC-IFB-0006) for Organics Collection and Disposal Services, which encompasses multiple District agencies including the D.C. Public Schools (DCPS), Department of Parks and Recreation, and Fire and Emergency Medical Services. The schedule demonstrates the collection logistics for ten DCPS facilities distributed across Washington, DC's six quadrants, featuring 96-gallon containers with three weekly collections (Monday, Wednesday, Friday) at each location, resulting in approximately 156 annual collections per site. Each facility is assigned a unique identifier number, specific street address, quadrant designation, ward number, and container specification. The pre-bid conference is scheduled for March 12, 2026 at 11:00 a.m., with electronic bid submissions due March 25, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. EST and public bid opening at 2:00 p.m. the same day. The contract is structured as an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity agreement with a one-year base period plus up to four one-year renewal options.

This hauling schedule serves as an operational reference for bidders to understand collection frequency and distribution patterns across the District's portfolio. The schedule indicates that all listed DCPS facilities utilize standardized 96-gallon container sizes with consistent three-times-weekly pickup frequency, establishing baseline service expectations for cost estimation purposes. The procurement is exclusively designated for Small Business Enterprises (SBEs) certified by the District's Department of Small and Local Business Development, with certified SBE bidders eligible for up to 12% pricing preference. The contract establishes a non-guaranteed maximum ordering ceiling of $950,000 per annual period and guaranteed minimum annual orders of $50.00, with estimated annual service costs per container type ranging from $3,120.00 to $4,056.00. For task orders exceeding $250,000, contractors must subcontract at least 35% of the dollar volume to small businesses, and performance failures including missed collections are subject to disincentive fees ranging from $100 to $500 per incident.
