Waste Collection Government Contracts in Ohio
Statewide ranked opportunities and likely upcoming recompetes for facilities contractors across Ohio.
Market Intelligence —
Waste Collection in Ohio
Ohio's Waste Collection Services market is highly concentrated: Lisbon alone accounts for 50% of the state's 6 active opportunities in Q2 2026, with Lisbon, Seville collectively representing 100% of all activity. This concentration pattern creates a two-tier market — contractors must establish presence in Lisbon to access the majority of deal flow, while secondary markets offer lower-volume but less competitive opportunities.
Across Ohio, Waste Collection Services procurement distributes across 5 buying agencies, led by Department of Veterans Affairs (34%), FEDERAL PRISON SYSTEM / BUREAU OF PRISONS (21%), Defense Logistics Agency (16%). With Department of Veterans Affairs at 34% market share and $10.2M in total state spending, the market offers a balance of focused and diversified strategies — contractors can specialize in the top agency or build a broader pipeline across multiple buyers. On the vendor side, the market is incumbent-heavy: the top 3 contractors — HAMILTON ALLIANCE INC, BROWNING-FERRIS INDUSTRIES OF OHIO, INC., REPUBLIC SERVICES OF OHIO HAULING, LLC — hold 70% of recent awards, meaning new entrants face significant barriers unless targeting recompetes or set-asides.
