SUMMARY & BACKGROUND These contracts furnish all materials, labor, equipment, transportation, and appurtenances necessary for providing comprehensive countywide solid waste disposal and single stream recycling services for Fulton County facilities for FY2026.
Scope of Work: The Scope of Work consists of solid waste collection, transportation, and disposal services for the County's facilities, and to support the ongoing operational needs for the disposal of construction and demolition waste, clearing and grubbing debris, municipal solid waste, and other routine waste materials.
In addition to the solid waste disposal, the contractors shall provide landfill/transfer station or other disposal facilities, such as dumpsters, roll off containers, single stream recycling collection and shredding services on an "as needed" basis to meet the essential operations of the County. This may require the solid waste contractor to operate on a variable or limited frequency to satisfy the additional solid waste needs of any Fulton County facility. The recycling will be conducted utilizing recycling 95-gallon containers. This contract also has the capacity to provide scrap tire removal and disposal, cardboard recycling, and container handling on an as-needed basis for Fulton County.
Community Impact: The overall impact on community health would be unsanitary conditions throughout the County if solid waste is not properly disposed of. The addition of single stream packet recycling allows the surrounding communities to recycle without having to separate the waste. This applies to all districts.
Department Recommendation: The Department of Real Estate and Asset Management recommends approval.
The requested spending authority for FY 2026 in the total amount of $1,717,000.00 is an increase of $432,000.00 over 2025. This is due to the fact that the original contracts were approved for services over an 8-month period in 2025.
These are time and materials contracts and the requested spending authorities in the total amount of $1,717,000.00 is for a full 12-months and its sufficient to cover the anticipated costs for labor, equipment, and transportation pick-up/haul for the disposal of solid waste at designated landfill sites for Fulton County for FY2026.
Project Implications: These contracts allow the Solid Waste Contractors to collect and dispose of solid waste countywide and provide single-stream recycling services to the designated landfill sites.
Community Issues/Concerns: None that the Department is aware of.
Department Issues/Concerns: If these contracts are not renewed, the Department will not have the ability to continue to collect solid waste and recycling materials from countywide facilities and dispose of it properly.
