Southern Colorado Services & Recycling LLC

Southern Colorado Services & Recycling LLC, doing business as Southern Co Services & Recycling, a woman-owned small business (WOSB) based in Pueblo, Colorado, holds a $7.5 million multiple-award indefinite-delivery contract as a prime contractor to supply portable toilets, wheelchair-accessible portable toilets, and handwashing stations for federal incident response and fire suppression operations. The company operates as a sole proprietorship and competes predominantly on open (non-set-aside) delivery orders under its small-business-set-aside parent IDC awarded by the National Interagency Fire Center on May 1, 2025, running through June 30, 2027.

Southern Colorado Services & Recycling LLC's federal footprint concentrates entirely within the Department of Agriculture Forest Service. The vendor serves four distinct customer agencies—the Forest Service's Rocky Mountain Region (Region 2), the National Interagency Fire Center, the Forest Service's Southwestern Region (Region 3), and the Army Materiel Command Chemical Materials Agency—with 100% coverage across twelve total awards since 2016. The National Interagency Fire Center contract anchors the portfolio at $7.5 million combined potential value; the Rocky Mountain Region has issued nine delivery orders under that parent IDC, worth $5.1 million combined. All other awards are small—ranging from $700 to $18,610 per delivery order—reflecting the incident-driven, task-order consumption pattern typical of emergency-response portable sanitation contracts.

Capability delivery centers on portable sanitation infrastructure logistics: Southern Colorado Services & Recycling LLC deploys standard and wheelchair-accessible portable toilets, handwashing stations, and associated equipment with full service, delivery, setup, and removal support on both regional and nationwide incident basis. The company maintains operational capacity in Lakewood, Colorado alongside its Pueblo headquarters, enabling dispatch to forest service regions across the country. Representative recent work includes an $18,610 firm fixed-price delivery order from Region 2 for portable toilet and handwashing station services awarded August 20, 2025 (completion August 27, 2025), a $6,990 delivery order the same date, and multiple smaller orders in late August and early September 2025 ranging from $700 to $5,275.

Activity shows sharp recent growth. The vendor received one award each in 2016 and 2017, then two awards in 2024, and jumped to seven awards in 2025 plus one in 2026 to date. The portfolio carries minimal obligated dollars ($87 thousand, or 1% of combined potential value), indicating that most contract ceilings remain unexercised. The vendor subcontracts in a minor role: one sub-award from Tetra Tech, Inc. on a Chemical Materials Agency base operations and environmental support task in September 2024, representing facilities support work separate from the core portable sanitation line.
