FAQ
What work fits NAICS 562920?
- Operation of a materials recovery facility receiving commingled recyclables and producing sorted bales of paper, cardboard, glass cullet, ferrous and nonferrous fractions.
- Manual quality control stations and contamination removal to improve bale quality and meet buyer contamination thresholds.
- Operation and maintenance of automated sorting equipment such as optical sorters, eddy-current separators, and balers to produce marketable commodity streams.
- Transfer, staging, and loading of recovered commodities, including containerizing, palletizing, and arranging transport to downstream processors or brokers.
When is NAICS 562920 a weak fit?
- Waste-to-energy or reprocessing plants: perform thermal or chemical reprocessing of feedstock rather than sorting, baling, and preparing recyclable commodities for market.
- Landfill operations and disposal services: centered on waste disposal, cell construction, cover, and leachate control rather than recovery and marketing of recyclables.
- Hazardous waste treatment, storage, or disposal: requires specialized permits and treatment processes for hazardous streams that go beyond recyclable material handling and marketing.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 562920?
- Performance metrics require maximum bale contamination percentages or minimum commodity purity levels measured on delivered bales.
- CLINs describe required operating shifts for sorting lines, maintenance obligations for conveyors and balers, and throughput targets expressed in tons per hour or tons per day.
- Proposal evaluation requests past performance demonstrating operation of a MRF with optical sorters, eddy-current separators, balers, QA records, and commodity sales documentation.
