Scrap Tire Collection and Recycling Services

The Mecklenburg County government authority in Charlotte, North Carolina is seeking a vendor to provide comprehensive scrap tire collection and recycling services. The agency needs to prevent scrap tires from accumulating on the ground overnight by ensuring continuous access to empty collection equipment. The selected provider must supply all necessary containers, trailers, and transportation equipment to collect, haul, and recycle the tires deposited at the county facility. The scope of work requires the vendor to coordinate and provide collection equipment on a schedule that maintains sufficient empty loading space at all times. The provider must remove all loaded trailers within twenty-four hours of filling and haul them away without comingling other materials or tires from outside the county facility. Additionally, the contractor must weigh the collected tires using certified scales calibrated at least annually and report these weights directly to the county. Eligible bidders must be onshore organizations based in the United States, and all contracted work will be performed offsite. The agency is requesting budget proposals from interested parties rather than providing a set budget limit. The contract term will span a period of three years. The agency will host a pre-bid meeting on June 10, 2026, to discuss the project requirements with interested bidders. Bidders must submit all clarification questions regarding the opportunity no later than June 24, 2026. The agency will evaluate proposals based on the submitted qualifications and pricing structures to select the most suitable partner for these recycling services.
