City of Nashua, Public Works Division
Board of Public Works Meeting Date: July 27, 2017
Jeff Lafleur, Superintendent
Solid Waste Department
Tire Recycling Program
To approve Northeast Resource Recovery Association of Epsom, NH to perform
Tire Recycling services at the City’s landfills for FY18-FY20. The estimated cost
for tire recycling in FY 2018 will be $13,703.75. This is a three year contract not
to exceed $13,703.75 per year. Funding will be through: Department: 168 Solid
Waste; Fund: Solid Waste; Account Classification: 55 Other Contracted Services.
NRRA proposed Bid of services
Although bid specs for tire recycling were sent to five companies, we received
only one written response from the FY2017 vendor, the Northeast Resource
Recovery Association (NRRA). A spreadsheet with the numbers is attached, as is
the formal quote from the NRRA for the same program with BDS Waste
Disposal. The price per ton remains the same for small loads (under 14 tons,
$155 per ton), but decreases to $125 / ton for loads of 14 tons or more. Based on
the FY 2017 tonnage, the estimated cost for tire recycling in FY 2018 will be -
$13,703.75.
Since they are the only bidder, and have performed satisfactorily during the past
year, I would agree that we proceed with the approval process via the Board of
Public Works and the Finance Committee.
