Proposers must submit separate pricing for individual sites and a bundled district-wide price. Required proposal content includes company information, years in business, local office location, missed-pickup handling procedures and response-time guarantees, ability to provide early-morning pickups before 7 a.m., container maintenance and replacement services, identification of accepted recycling materials, emergency pickup procedures with response times and associated costs, and overflow and event-related waste collection capabilities. All items must be delivered and installed on or before August 1, 2026.

The contract term is three years with options to renew for two additional one-year extensions, for a potential total of five years. The District intends to award on or before July 1, 2026.
