## Description

Amendment 005 to Solicitation #36C25926Q0261 (Trash Removal and Recycling Services) This amendment s purpose is to provide clarification on line item #0002 based on recent questions. Interested small businesses should note, the existing contract for trash removal services at the Grand Junction VA Medical Center facility is with Waste Management (WM) until 4/30/2026. The existing compactor is currently in good working condition.

As part of the existing contract, the 8-yard compactor was fully installed at the facility at the beginning of the contract. Any small business vendors who are offering a quote with Waste Management as a subcontractor should factor in the existence of the Waste Management-owned compactor.

Interested vendors, with Waste Management as a subcontractor, are not expected to provide a new compactor. **Vendors who would be providing the equipment and services themselves (or working with a subcontractor other than WM) should be sure to factor in the costs for installation (and eventual removal) of a compactor since Waste Management would need to remove the existing compactor from the facility if the contract is awarded to another vendor/subcontractor.

If a vendor determines one or more line items do not have a dollar amount above zero, the line item should still be included in their quotes. Those line items should be included but the amount listed as $0.00 when appropriate. At this time, the recently updated deadline for quote packages remains 12pm MST on Friday, April 3rd, 2026. Complete quote packages shall be emails to stephanie.cahill@va.gov no later than the deadline provided above. Quotes shall not be hand carried. Faxed quotes shall not be accepted.

Emailed quotes are the only method of submitted quotes (4MB email limit). The Government reserves the right to make the award solely on initial Quotes received. Offerors bear the burden of ensuring that all portions of the offer (and any authorized amendments) reach the designated office before the deadline specified in the solicitation. This RFQ shall be completed in its entirety, and signed and dated, failure shall not be considered for award.
