The Rankin County Board of Supervisors is soliciting sealed proposals for the collection and disposal of household hazardous waste. The service event is scheduled for October 3, 2026, from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at the Rankin County Recycling Facility in Brandon, Mississippi. Proposals must be submitted by 8:30 a.m. on Friday, September 4, 2026, either electronically via centralbidding.com or as sealed paper submissions delivered to the Rankin County Board of Supervisors. The selected contractor will act as the legal waste generator and is responsible for the full lifecycle of the event, including providing all necessary equipment such as tents, drums, and forklifts, as well as safety gear like respirators and Tyvek suits. Key responsibilities include the on-site sorting, weighing, testing, packaging, and labeling of waste, followed by immediate transportation to a federally permitted disposal facility. Overnight storage of waste is strictly prohibited. The contractor must provide a site safety plan and a spill control plan one week prior to the event and must comply with all EPA, OSHA, and DOT regulations. Award evaluation is based on technical compliance, operational experience, and cost competitiveness, with pricing structured as a cost-per-pound for 19 specific waste categories. Mandatory requirements include a valid Mississippi hazardous waste license and proof of insurance. Payment will be issued within 45 days following the verification of shipping manifests, test results, and disposal records by the Rankin County Board of Supervisors.
