Scrap Tire Recycling Program Services

The DeKalb County government authority located in Decatur, Georgia is seeking a contractor to provide comprehensive scrap tire recycling program services. The agency needs to manage scrap tire accumulation by promoting the recycling program to tire retailers, automotive service providers, salvage businesses, and other scrap tire generators. This initiative aims to solve the environmental and safety hazards associated with improper tire disposal by ensuring all collected tires are processed into approved recyclable forms such as tire-derived fuel, rubber mulch, crumb rubber, or shredded material. The scope of work requires the contractor to operate a scrap tire recycling facility a minimum of five days per week, from Monday through Friday. The contractor must maintain compliant tire storage configurations at all times, including fire lane clearances, approved stacking limits, and strict vector and pest control requirements. Additionally, the agency requires at least 72 hours of advance notice from the contractor prior to any unplanned closure or operational interruption. Eligibility is restricted to onshore organizations based in the United States, and the performance of all contracted work must take place offsite. The agency is looking for proposals to establish the budget and pricing structure for these services. Key dates for this procurement include a pre-bid meeting scheduled for June 1, 2026, and a deadline for all question submissions on July 10, 2026.
