Description

The University of Louisville is soliciting a single contractor to provide containerized solid‑waste collection services for its own campuses and for members of the “Partnership for a Green City,” which includes Jefferson County Public Schools, Louisville Metro Government, Jefferson Community & Technical College, and the Louisville Regional Airport Authority. The contractor must supply, place, maintain, and regularly empty front‑loader dumpsters (primarily 8‑cubic‑yard units) and a limited number of roll‑off containers and compactors at dozens of sites, following partner‑specific pickup schedules and operating within strict time windows, security procedures, and environmental standards. The contract will begin on 1 January 2027, run for a five‑year base term with annual renewals, and requires the vendor to meet performance‑bond, insurance, and reporting obligations. • Weekly waste‑collection and occasional on‑call roll‑off services for roughly 900 dumpsters across five public‑sector partners. • Detailed service schedules (frequency and days) for each site are provided in appendices; walk‑throughs were offered Oct 1‑8 2026 (optional). • Vendor must provide all containers, maintain them in good repair, respond to service issues within two hours, and comply with Kentucky noise ordinances, security escorts, and environmental regulations.

Budget estimate

$50,000,000 – $120,000,000

The solicitation does not disclose total contract value. Based on the schedule of roughly 900 dumpsters serviced weekly across five partners, a typical municipal waste‑collection contract of this scale often ranges from $10‑$25 million per year. Over the five‑year base term, the full contract could therefore be valued between $50 million and $120 million, depending on unit rates, special‑waste pickups, and any on‑call services.
