About this opportunity

Charles County Commissioners are soliciting quotes for a mattress and bed base/box spring hauling and recycling contract for county-owned facilities, specifically targeting an estimated 880 mattresses and bed bases/box springs per month from the Charles County Landfill located at 12305 Billingsley Road in Waldorf. The procurement is a Request for Quote (RFQ) seeking a qualified contractor responsible for collecting, hauling, and recycling mattresses from residential sources within the county. Contractors must provide their own collection containers, obtain necessary permits, and comply with Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) approved procedures. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive, responsible quoter based on unit pricing for hauling and recycling. The initial contract term will run from the notice of intent to award or January 1, 2025, through March 31, 2026, with four optional one-year renewals at the county's discretion. Quote submissions are due by December 18, 2024, at 11:00 am, and contractors must submit semi-annual reports documenting material types and tonnages recovered.

The county has established an aspirational 25% Minority Women Business Enterprise (MWBE) participation goal and offers a Small Local Business Enterprise (SLBE) program that may provide preferences for registered local businesses. Contractors must demonstrate the capability to handle environmental compliance, including obtaining necessary environmental permits and maintaining appropriate insurance coverage, including commercial automobile, general liability, workers' compensation, pollution liability, and environmental insurance with specified minimum coverage amounts. The procurement is fully funded by the county through a new $10 Mattress & Box Spring Recycling Fee, with an estimated contract value of $80,000 for Fiscal Year 2025. The program is designed to be self-sustaining, with the recycling fee offsetting operational costs. Successful contractors will need to provide a comprehensive operations plan detailing equipment, facilities, and recycling methods, and must be prepared to mobilize within two business days of notification. The county will evaluate potential contractors based on their ability to meet technical requirements, comply with environmental regulations, and provide cost-effective recycling services.
