The Contractor will enter into a contract with the City whereby the Contractor offers Services to Property Owners at a fixed price.

For Property Owners who opt to purchase Services from the Contractor, the Contractor will provide weekly collection and disposal of containerized Solid Waste and Recycling, and all tasks necessary or incidental thereto. The Contractor will also pay the City a fixed administrative fee to cover the City's costs of monitoring and ensuring compliance with the Contract.
