  About SHACOG     Solid Waste Collection Joint Bid     SHACOG  
In 1998 a monumental undertaking was the development of specifications and subsequent release of a bid for solid waste collection to service 13 SHACOG communities for a five (5) year period beginning in 1999.  The specifications were tailored to each municipality’s needs, including recycling, and each municipality can choose either a per-ton or per-unit rate, whichever is less.  The combined contract for all 13 eligible municipalities will include more than 60,000 units or households, and be worth $20 million over the five year period. Based on prices being paid at the time of the bid, the 5-year savings for the participating municipalities will be approximately $1 million. SHACOG will now assume responsibility for this collective effort and release a new bid for this contract in 2003.
