About this opportunity

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is soliciting bids for garbage and recycling services at William O'Brien State Park in Washington County for calendar years 2025-2026. The procurement seeks a contractor to provide comprehensive waste management services, including supplying garbage and recycling containers, loading, hauling, and disposing of waste from multiple park locations such as picnic grounds, campgrounds, and facilities. Specific service requirements include weekly pickups during peak season (April-October) and monthly pickups during off-season (November-March), with additional holiday weekend services. The bid requires electronic submission through the Swift Portal, with a revised due date of January 30, 2025, and all responses must be submitted using the provided Excel Price Schedule. Contractors are required to include all costs in their unit pricing, including labor, materials, tools, transportation, equipment, and taxes. A site visit can be arranged by contacting project manager Wayne Boerner at 651-539-4983, and the award will be made to the lowest responsible vendor meeting all specifications and terms.

The state encourages participation from diverse business enterprises, including minority-owned, women-owned, veteran-owned, and disabled-owned businesses, with a veteran-owned small business preference of 12% on state procurement up to $2,000,000. Bidders must maintain appropriate solid waste hauler licensing and insurance coverage, and comply with state and county waste management regulations, including the 17% Minnesota Solid Waste Fee. Vendors must be registered as either a bidder or supplier in the Swift Portal to participate, and failure to respond to the latest event version or complete all required documentation may result in bid rejection. While no specific incumbent vendor is mentioned, the contract requires integration with existing park infrastructure and waste management systems. Though a precise award value is not specified, the comprehensive two-year service contract covers multiple dumpster sizes and locations, suggesting a potentially significant contract value for the selected waste management provider.
