F108--Unrestricted - Pharmaceutical Waste Pickup and Destruction

The Department of Veterans Affairs is seeking a contractor to provide pharmaceutical waste pickup and destruction services. The contractor will be responsible for collecting and disposing of pharmaceutical waste, including RCRA hazardous and non-RCRA hazardous waste. The VA expects a twice-yearly pickup, with an estimated volume of 50% of the current inventory list. The contractor will need to provide segregation and disposal of pharmaceuticals as non-RCRA hazardous waste. Some key points to consider: • The VA does not currently segregate non-hazardous pharmaceuticals from RCRA hazardous pharmaceuticals. • RCRA hazardous waste can be segregated from non-RCRA pharmaceutical waste. • The contractor will need to provide average drum counts per shipment by type. • The VA expects a twice-yearly pickup, with an estimated volume of 50% of the current inventory list.
