Discussion:
The Solid Waste Department went out for bid to vendors for a three year contract
to recycle scrap metal from the Four Hills Landfill, subject to annual budget
approvals. The bid requirements were for each vendor to give a bid for the price
they would offer to pay the City of Nashua for the scrap metal.
The Solid Waste Department received five bids. Clark’s Scrap Metal, Hallowell
ME; Excel Recycling LLC, Freetown, MA; MAC Metals LLC, Portsmouth NH;
Now Rush Transportation, Derry, NH; ReEnergy, Salem, NH.
Four of the proposals use the American Metals Market for a revenue index, but
with different formulae.
The Solid Waste Superintendent and the Recycling Coordinator recommend
awarding Excel Recycling LLC the contract for services.
These revenue-sharing bottom-line numbers are based on actual January 2018
tonnage shipped from the Four Hills Landfill/Nashua Recycling Center and are
based on each company’s proposed formula and costs.
