NAICS 562111 – Solid Waste Collection encompasses the systematic gathering, transportation, and disposal of non-hazardous solid waste generated by federal facilities, military installations, veteran centers, and other government-operated sites. This includes curbside collection, landfill transport, transfer station operations, and waste stream segregation services aligned with federal environmental compliance standards such as RCRA and EPA guidelines. In the government contracting landscape, this NAICS supports mission continuity by ensuring sanitary, legally compliant waste management across DoD bases, VA medical campuses, DOJ facilities, and Department of the Interior lands, enabling agencies to focus on core operations while meeting sustainability and regulatory obligations. Top contractors in this sector include BPM SERVICES INC, SUNTIFF, LLC, PERFECTED SOLUTIONS LLC, MST MARITIME MANAGEMENT LLC, TECH O. R., LLC, and AECOM TECHNICAL SERVICES, INC., reflecting a mix of small businesses and mid-sized primes with specialized logistics and environmental service capabilities. Many are certified small disadvantaged or veteran-owned firms, indicating a strong presence of socioeconomically targeted contracting opportunities. The competitive landscape is characterized by regional expertise, fleet management proficiency, and experience in securing permits for federal property waste handling. Primary buyers include the Department of Defense, Department of Veterans Affairs, Department of Homeland Security, Department of Justice, and Department of the Interior, with specific installations such as W6QM Micc Ft Mccoy (RC) and W076 Endist Tulsa serving as concentrated procurement hubs. Demand is driven by base operations, environmental stewardship mandates, and infrastructure modernization initiatives requiring reliable, compliant waste removal services on federal lands and remote installations. The market offers consistent, recurring contract opportunities due to the non-discretionary nature of waste services. Contractors with proven experience in federal environmental compliance, modular waste handling systems, and multi-site logistics have a strategic advantage in securing long-term task orders and blanket purchase agreements.

Bidder counts reported on past federal awards in this NAICS (USAspending). An open opportunity has no bidders yet, so this is the historical norm for similar work, not a fact about this solicitation. Not all awards report bidder counts, and fewer bidders often means incumbent-held work rather than an easier win. Federal reporting of bidder counts fell from ~96% of awards (FY2016) to ~30% (FY2018 onward); the chart shows shares of reported awards, and washed-out stretches mark years with fewer than 30 of them.
