    Description

    > **Attachments are gated.** To access the full download package ($5), contact [support@samsearch.co](mailto:support@samsearch.co). The goal of this RFP is for the County to offer residents and eligible small businesses access to weekly solid waste collection services that provide a similar economy-of-scale that a large HOA can negotiate. The program would be offered as a subscription-based service in advance of April 2029 where it may become mandatory. The County also manages a subscription-based, bi-weekly, curbside recycling service. Approximately 9,300 households participate in the program. The County anticipates awarding a contract for the curbside collection of recyclables to coincide with the award of the solid waste collection contract but may choose to award it earlier. Ideally, the same contractor will be selected for both services, but the County retains the option to award the trash collection and curbside recycling contracts separately. The County owns all the curbside recycling carts currently deployed throughout the County plus an additional 700 spare carts. ## Details **Bid Opening Date:** 2026-05-27T14:00:00 **Fiscal Year:** 2026 **Solicitation Number:** RFP-20260919-0-2026/CR **Bid Number:** 20260919 **Bid Type:** RFP - Request for Proposal **Document Distribution Method:** Download **Document Distribution Notes:** None **Distribution Options:** Bid has no blueprints associated with it **Electronic Bidding:** Yes **County:** James City County **Planholders:** 4
