Recycling Technical Assistance Outreach and Education

San Diego County is seeking a subcontractor to deliver outreach and education services aimed at improving recycling compliance and waste diversion among unincorporated businesses, multi-family complexes, and residential properties. The project focuses on technical assistance to help these entities understand and adhere to local recycling requirements, with the goal of reducing landfill waste and increasing sustainability efforts across the county. Work will be conducted primarily within the city of San Diego, targeting hard-to-reach populations and properties that have historically struggled with compliance. The contract is posted with a response deadline of July 31, 2026, and falls under the NAICS code 611710, which relates to other schools and instruction, indicating an educational and capacity-building component. While no set-aside type is specified, the opportunity is structured as a subcontract, suggesting it may be layered under a larger county initiative. All activities must align with the county’s broader environmental goals, and the selected vendor will be expected to design and implement targeted campaigns, educational materials, and on-the-ground support to effectively engage the community and drive measurable improvements in recycling participation and waste diversion rates.
