Description

This solicitation seeks a qualified contractor to provide on‑call collection, removal, and recycling of scrap metal (including aluminum) from Caltrans maintenance stations in Monterey, Santa Cruz, and San Benito Counties. The contract is a revenue‑share agreement where the contractor retains the proceeds from metal sales and remits a pre‑determined percentage to Caltrans; no separate service fee is allowed. The contractor must supply all labor, equipment, containers, transportation, and related incidentals, maintain compliance with numerous state regulations, and submit monthly reports and invoices. • Perform on‑call metal‑scrap pickup at three designated maintenance stations, responding within 3 business days of a request. • Provide, maintain, and exchange 40‑cubic‑yard roll‑off containers, weigh each load, keep records for at least three years, and submit monthly tonnage and price verification reports. • Hold a valid California DMV Motor Carrier Permit, obtain Darfur Contracting Act certification, carry required insurance, and cannot subcontract any portion of the work.

Budget estimate

$50,000 – $120,000

Based on typical scrap‑metal volumes for three maintenance stations (estimated 150–300 tons per year) and average market prices of $120‑$180 per ton, total gross revenue could range from $18,000 to $54,000 annually. After deducting Caltrans’s revenue‑share percentage (approximately 10‑15 %), the contractor’s net earnings would be roughly $15,000‑$45,000 per year, yielding a three‑year total between $45,000 and $135,000. Factors influencing the range include actual tonnage collected, metal price fluctuations, and the specific percentage bid.
