Scrap metal recycling contract with Windfield Alloy Inc. of Atkinson, NH
To approve a three year contract between the City of Nashua and Windfield Alloy
Inc. of Atkinson, NH for the recycling of scrap metal at the Four Hills Landfill.
The term of this contract will be from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2024,
pending approval of the FY22 operating budget. Revenue generated through this
contract will be directed to: Department: 168 Solid Waste; Fund: Solid Waste;
Account Classification: 44 Charges for Services.
The Solid Waste Department went out to bid for vendors for a three year contract
to recycle scrap metal from the Four Hills Landfill, subject to annual budget
approvals. The term of this contract will be from July 1, 2021 through June 30,
2024. 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 two proposals for the RFP. Windfield
Alloy of Atkinson, NH and Excel Recycling LLC, Freetown, MA were the
companies which responded with proposals.
Both of them use the American Metals Market for a revenue index, but with
different formulae.
The Solid Waste Superintendent and the Recycling Coordinator recommend
awarding Windfield Alloy of Atkinson the contract for services.
These revenue-sharing bottom-line numbers are based on actual January 2020
tonnage shipped from the Four Hills Landfill/Nashua Recycling Center and are
based on each company’s proposed formula and costs.
Quote using January 2020 Actual Tonnage Shipped
Excel Recycling, LLC $9,317.10
Windfield Alloy $10,026.00
