Bucks Sanitary Service Inc.

Bucks Sanitary Service Inc., a family-owned small business based in Eugene, Oregon, operates as a prime contractor providing portable sanitation infrastructure—portable toilets, hand washing stations, septic pumping, and waste removal services—to the federal government, predominantly under total small business set-asides on incident and routine delivery orders. The company competes entirely as a prime contractor (100% of awards) and has no subcontract footprint; it is not certified as an 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or WOSB entity, but qualifies for small business set-aside competition under NAICS 562991 (Septic Tank and Related Services) and related categories.

Bucks Sanitary Service's customer base is geographically and operationally concentrated. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service's Pacific Northwest Region (Region 6) dominates activity—143 awards generating $12.2 million in combined potential value, accounting for 82% of recent prime awards and 57% of total potential value across the portfolio. The National Interagency Fire Center, also within USDA, drives the second-largest segment with 6 awards valued at $8.5 million, followed by Army Corps of Engineers, BLM Oregon-Washington, and the National Park Service Pacific West Region. Together, these USDA customers account for 94% of award count and over 90% of potential value. The vendor's capability footprint is concentrated: NAICS 562991 (Septic Tank and Related Services) covers 61% of recent awards; NAICS 928110 (Support Activities for Forestry) covers 32%; reflecting the vendor's role in both routine sanitation maintenance and incident-response operations.

Bucks Sanitary Service holds a $7.5 million Incident Blanket Purchase Agreement (contract 1202RZ22T0062) with the National Interagency Fire Center, awarded July 1, 2022, expiring June 30, 2027, which has generated 63 task orders valued at $7.3 million—the single largest parent vehicle by volume and dollars. The vendor also holds a $500,000 single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (contract 1204H124T7081) with USDA Forest Service Region 6 for vault septic pumping services, awarded May 18, 2022, extending through April 30, 2032; 6 task orders under this vehicle total $471,000 in potential value. A second $500,000 Forest Service BPA (contract 1204H118T7292) was awarded June 24, 2022, for identical scope, generating 4 task orders valued at $170,000. Delivery orders and BPA calls under these vehicles range from $325 to $973,769.75, with typical performance periods spanning weeks to months for wildland fire suppression and emergency response. The National Interagency Fire Center also awarded Bucks two additional multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contracts on May 28, 2024, and February 6, 2026, each valued at $250,000, for potable and gray water trucks and trailer-mounted hand washing stations designated for Region 6, set aside for total small business.

Recent activity has declined sharply. The vendor received 38 awards in 2022, 30 in 2023, and 25 in 2024, but only 5 awards in 2025 and 2 in 2026 year-to-date. The combined portfolio spans 174 awards with $21.4 million in combined potential value and $11.8 million obligated (55% draw rate). Only one award faces completion within the next twenty-four months—a $65,000 National Park Service contract expiring July 15, 2028, reducing near-term recompete exposure. However, the $7.5 million Incident BPA, the primary revenue vehicle, expires June 30, 2027, presenting a material recompete cliff eighteen months out. Bucks Sanitary Service's representative work includes a $973,769.75 delivery order from Forest Service Region 6 (August 29, 2024) for portable toilet and hand washing station rentals; a $752,165.75 delivery order (August 30, 2023) for similar services in Springfield, Oregon; and a $64,582.04 exercise of option year 3 (July 13, 2023) for portable toilet rental and pumping at Crater Lake National Park under a total small business set-aside. Place of performance is nationwide for incident response, with administrative and routine work concentrated in Oregon and Washington (Eugene, Springfield, Roseburg, Medford, Corvallis, and Klamath Falls). The vendor describes itself as a family-owned company and has held federal contracts continuously since at least 1991, demonstrating sustained capacity in incident sanitation logistics and routine facility maintenance for public lands management.
