Information
Potentially harmful chemicals and materials are often stockpiled in basements, garages, closets and other storage areas as they are banned from
landfills. Homeowners often find it difficult to properly dispose of these types of wastes. Recognizing the need for environmentally sound management
of such waste, the Village Board directed staff to evaluate the feasibility of hosting a household hazardous waste collection event for Mount Prospect
residents (only).
Currently, there are four (4) IEPA hosted permanent household hazardous waste disposal sites in Illinois: Naperville, City of Chicago-Goose Island,
Rockford, and SWALCO-Gurnee location. Due to reduced funding, IEPA is no longer hosting any one-day events in Northern Illinois. Unfortunately, none
of these permanent site locations are convenient for Mount Prospect residents.
The proposed one-day household hazardous waste (HHW) collection event would be hosted on a Saturday (TBD) in June from 8:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
at the Mount Prospect Public Works Facility. All household hazardous wastes delivered to this event would only be collected from Mount Prospect
residents (no commercial/industrial waste). The following materials would be accepted at the one-day household hazardous collection event:
corrosives, oxidizers, flammable solvents, waste solvents, oil based paint, inorganic poisonous solids, organic poisons and pesticides, waste oils,
antifreeze, latex paint, compressed gas cylinders, Pentachlorophenol, Sylvex, 2, 4, 5-T, and hazardous substances, liquids or solids, not otherwise
specified.
Request for Proposals (RFPs)
Staff solicited proposals from eleven (11) environmental companies to provide OSHA/Hazardous (HazMat) trained personnel for the segregation,
packing, disposal and transportation of household hazardous wastes (HCW) in accordance with Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
standards/guidelines, as required, to support the operation of one-day household hazardous waste collection(s) (HHW) in Mount Prospect. A copy of
this RFP is enclosed as attachment A.
RFP Results
Three (3) technical proposals were received. Each proposal was evaluated based on the background of the company, related project experience,
proposed services and scope of work, schedule, work effort, and proposal content. Each company received a point ranking (total points = 100) for each
criteria. Table 1 below summarizes this analysis:

The proposals indicated that two of the three participating environmental companies were qualified to perform the specified work. Two of the three
companies had adequate experience and appropriately trained staff to host a successful one-day household hazardous waste collection event.
Accordingly, the evaluation results were closely distributed.

Staff conducted interviews with all three (3) environmental companies to make sure they all have a thorough understanding of the project scope and
the Village’s expectations for the one-day household hazardous waste collection event.
The highest rated company was Tradebe Environmental Services, LLC of Merrillville, Indiana. Tradebe Environmental Services, LLC proposal provided
experiences of successful similar type of events. All reference checks indicate Tradebe Environmental Services, LLC performed well. Tradebe
Environmental Services, LLC has over thirty (30) years’ experience of collection, treatment, recycling, and disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous
waste. They are one of the largest on-site providers of community based household hazardous waste collection programs in the nation.
Each environmental company was asked to submit a two (2) component cost proposal. Table 1 below illustrates component one (1), mobilization
(fixed) costs. Mobilization cost includes costs associated with estimated volume of cars, equipment, supplies, personnel, setup, operations,
transportation, non-hazardous waste disposal (packaging, empty containers from participants, waste from event operations).

Based on conversations with the environmental companies and municipalities that had previously hosted one-day HHW events, staff estimates a vehicle
range of 750-999 at the Mount Prospect one-day household hazardous collection event.
Table 2 illustrates component two (2), variable disposal costs. Variable disposal costs are made up of unit of measure and type of material. Table 2
below represents typical waste streams and average quantity collected at a one-day HHW event servicing 750-999 vehicles. Costs for other waste
streams are not listed in the table below but are provided in each cost proposal.

Staff recommends awarding the contract in a not to exceed amount of $100,000. The total cost estimate for the HHW collection is $51,063.11
($12,139.66 mobilization cost plus $38,923.45 in disposal/recycling costs. However, This would be the first HHW collection event to be held in Mount
Prospect in approximately twenty (20) years. In addition, staff is developing an aggressive advertising campaign to insure high participation rates.
With this in mind, staff is expecting a high participation rate and high volumes.
It is staff opinion that Tradebe understands the proposed project, has prepared a thorough proposal based on the extensive experience, and is well
qualified to perform the work.
