Modern Disposal Services, Inc.

Modern Disposal Services, Inc., a Lewiston, New York-based subchapter S corporation, operates exclusively as a prime contractor providing municipal solid waste collection, disposal, and recycling services to federal agencies under full-and-open (non-set-aside) competition. The company serves defense and veterans healthcare installations across the Northeast, with no subcontractor footprint and no IDV or GWAC holdings.

The vendor's customer concentration is heavily tilted toward two agencies. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 2 leads with 17 awards and $3.2 million in combined potential value; the Department of the Air Force Reserve Command holds 9 awards and $1.9 million. The top two agencies by potential value account for 99% of the combined portfolio value. A third customer tier — the Department of the Air Force (17 awards), the Department of Veterans Affairs (10 awards), and the Department of the Navy (8 awards) — together with the Air Force Reserve and VISN 2 form 81% of the award count across 75 total federal awards since 1980, though most of the non-VISN 2 and non-AFRC awards carry sub-hundred-thousand-dollar values. Capacity sits on five named Indefinite Delivery Contracts across VA and Air Force platforms: VA52816D0023 (5 task orders, $323 thousand combined potential), 36C24221D0090 (3 task orders, $181 thousand), 36C24224D0031 (3 task orders, $222 thousand), and two Air Force IDVs with 3 and 2 task orders respectively.

Work is concentrated in NAICS 562111 (Solid Waste Collection), which accounts for 29 of the 75 awards; PSC S205 (Housekeeping—Trash/Garbage Collection) dominates at 66 awards. Recent examples include a $714,947 definitive contract with the Air Force Reserve Command for integrated solid waste management at Niagara Falls Air Reserve Station through March 2031, including municipal waste, recycling, bulk refuse, and small arms ammunition casing disposal; a $78,320 delivery order with VISN 2 for municipal waste services at a VA facility in Snyder, New York, awarded May 1, 2026, and completing April 2029; and a $75,454 delivery order from the same customer also for Snyder operations. A single-award $400,000 IDC with VISN 2, awarded May 2024 and running through April 2027, has generated three task orders since issuance. Activity is sparse — one award per year in 2022–2023, then uptick to two awards in both 2024 and 2026 — with $3.4 million obligated against $5.3 million in combined potential value (64% burn rate). The vendor competes only in full-and-open; no set-aside designations appear across the portfolio.
