The scope covers trash removal, cardboard disposal, and comingled recycling (office paper, junk mail, magazines, color paper, aluminum, plastic beverage containers, phone books, glass, steel cans, aerosol cans, and catalogs) at multiple campus locations including Jamestown, High Point, Greensboro, Cameron, and three Aviation facilities.

Vendors must submit separate pricing for monthly rental, haul fees, and landfill disposal fees per ton for all three contract years.

The initial term runs one year beginning November 1, 2026 (or contract execution, whichever is later), with two optional one-year renewals at GTCC's sole discretion; written notice of renewal intent is due 30 days before each term expiration. Bids are evaluated on lowest responsive price meeting all specifications. Award may be made to a single vendor or split among multiple vendors by line item at GTCC's discretion.

Vendors must be registered in good standing in North Carolina's eVP system and, if awarded, complete NC Secretary of State registration within 10 business days. Required insurance includes Commercial General Liability of $1 million combined single limit, Automobile coverage of $1 million bodily injury and property damage with uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage, and Employer's Liability at statutory limits. E-Verify compliance is mandatory for employers with more than 25 North Carolina employees. Bid submissions must be electronic through eVP only and include executed contract pages, pricing forms (Attachment A), three customer references of similar scope (Attachment D), and worker location documentation (Attachment E). Late submissions are automatically rejected.
