Vendor/Contractor Name (including any “DBA”): Lambland Inc

 

Type and Scope of services to be performed:

The City’s Public Works Solid Waste Management Division (SWMD) operates a residential compost collection program that currently serves approximately 17,000 single-family homes, a select number of municipal buildings, and approximately 30 schools. Current program participants are serviced utilizing 11 residential compost collection routes.

                     

As of November of 2017, the compost collection program was made available to all single-family homes of seven-or-fewer units within the City and County of Denver, and subscription is gradually increasing. Composting is currently offered as a fee-for-service program, while other waste services are provided without a direct fee. As such, the City hopes to change the compost fee structure in the future, and anticipates a continued growth of this program. While the are no guarantees, participation is projected to reach 60,000 to 70,000 customers (26 additional collection routes) by the end of 2022.

                     

The City is dedicated to environmentally sound waste management with a focus on high quality customer service while maintaining clean material for composting. To provide a high-quality service to its residents, the City is looking to partner with a Vendor that is capable of producing a high-quality compost and also in the marketing of a high-quality compost product that will add value back to our local environment and to Colorado’s soils.
