Curb Side Collection, Disposal Residential Waste and Recycling Service

The City of Herculaneum, Missouri is seeking a qualified vendor to provide consistent, reliable, and high-quality curb side collection, hauling, processing, and disposal of residential solid waste, recyclables, yard waste, and bulk items. The city aims to solve the challenge of maintaining clean and efficient waste management operations while ensuring strong community satisfaction and responsiveness. Under this arrangement, the city will continue to handle billing for residential solid waste services through its own utility billing system, requiring the selected contractor to structure pricing to accommodate this system. The scope of work covers weekly collection of residential trash and biweekly collection of recycling as part of the base service. The agency also requests pricing for an additive alternate to increase the recycling collection frequency from biweekly to weekly service. Bulk item collection is limited to large household items that cannot fit in standard trash carts, such as furniture and mattresses, and explicitly excludes construction debris, hazardous materials, automotive parts, or other materials prohibited by law or landfill regulations. Eligible bidders must be onshore organizations based in the United States. The selected contractor must perform all physical collection and disposal work onsite within the city limits of Herculaneum, Missouri. The contract period will span five years, and the agency is currently looking for proposals to determine the budget and pricing structure.
