Government contracts for waste & recycling services in Tennessee

Waste & recycling services contracts in Tennessee 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.

Tennessee currently has 2 open waste & recycling services contracts in our database, with 2 added in the last 30 days. Volume in smaller markets is lumpy: a single base or facility can drive a quarter of annual postings. The most active buyer is State of Tennessee (2 open posts), but contracts also come from federal civilian agencies and state-level departments operating in Tennessee.

Beyond federal opportunities, much of the waste & recycling services work in Tennessee is posted through GO-BID (Tennessee CPO), with recurring buyers including the Tennessee Department of Transportation, Tennessee State Parks, and the Tennessee Emergency Management Agency. Central Procurement Office runs the GoDBE and Diversity Business Enterprise programs that gate access to dedicated set-aside spend. 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.
