About waste & recycling services contracts in California
Waste & recycling services contracts in California typically cover scheduled refuse and recycling collection at military bases and federal buildings, roll-off and dumpster service on construction and demolition sites, transfer-station and landfill operations support, hazardous and regulated-waste disposal, and recurring junk and debris-removal IDIQs. Federal posts in this category fall under NAICS 562111 (Solid Waste Collection), with related work classified under 562119 (Other Waste Collection) and 562212 (Solid Waste Landfill), and the bulk of the work flows to DoD installations, the GSA Public Buildings Service, the U.S. Postal Service, and the Department of Veterans Affairs. Recurring collection contracts are heavily small-business set-aside and frequently reserved for 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB haulers, since most fall under the simplified acquisition threshold and favor regional operators over national waste majors.
California currently has 39 open waste & recycling services contracts in our database, with 26 added in the last 30 days. That's enough volume that a focused small business can win recurring work in this state without ever leaving its home market. The most active buyers are Department of Transportation (4 open posts) and Los Angeles County (4), with the rest spread across other federal civilian agencies, DoD components, and state and local departments active in California.
Beyond federal opportunities, much of the waste & recycling services work in California is posted through Cal eProcure, with recurring buyers including Caltrans, the University of California system, the California Department of General Services, and the City and County of Los Angeles. California's SB/DVBE certification programs reserve a target share of state spend for certified small and disabled-veteran-owned firms — getting certified is usually step one. ContractRadar pulls federal postings from SAM.gov alongside state and local feeds so a waste and recycling vendor doesn't have to monitor each portal manually.
