Community Trash & Recycling Bin Access, Storage and Screening Solutions
Proposal Submission Deadline: 10/31/2026
Submitted October 15, 2026
A. Community Site Survey
•
Walk and survey the community with an HOA representative to observe representative home types, grades, pathways, fences, gates, steps, rear-access limitations, front-yard conditions, and other relevant constraints.
•
Identify and document the principal categories of properties where moving bins to and from an approved storage area is difficult or impractical.
Oxon Creek Homeowners Association • RFQ – Trash & Recycling Storage Solutions
• Take measurements, photographs, and field notes as needed to support recommendations. Vendor shall
coordinate any resident-specific access through the HOA.
• Assess space needed for commonly used residential trash and recycling containers, including
configurations capable of accommodating large containers up to approximately 96 gallons where
applicable.
• Identify safety, drainage, slope, accessibility, utility, maintenance, and installation considerations that may
affect proposed solutions.
B. Constraints and Feasibility Assessment
• Describe the constraints observed and group similar property conditions into practical categories or prototypes.
• Identify where rear or side storage remains feasible and where an alternative approach may be warranted.
• Evaluate whether minor site modifications—such as gate modifications, pathway improvements, pads, ramps, or other access improvements—could provide a practical solution.
• Identify any apparent conditions that may require HOA architectural approval, homeowner permission,
permitting, utility marking, or additional professional review before installation.
C. Alternative Solutions
Vendor shall propose a minimum of two materially different solutions. Vendors are encouraged to provide
additional options when site conditions support them. At least one proposed solution must address a uniform front-facing screened storage option.

Requirements & Expectations
Solution 1 – Uniform Front-Facing Bin Cover/Enclosure
A screened enclosure or cover that can be placed at an HOA-approved front or front-adjacent
location for properties where rear access is impractical.
Uniform appearance; weather resistance; ventilation; ease of opening; anchoring; placement;
drainage; maintenance; compatibility with trash/recycling containers; color/material options;
expected life.
Solution 2 – Alternative Access or Storage Solution
A distinct approach that reduces the need to move bins over steep grades or through blocked
pathways.
Examples may include side-yard screening, gate/path modifications, small pads, ramps, relocated
screened storage, or another vendor-designed approach based on field conditions.
Optional Additional Solution(s)
Any additional practical approach the vendor believes would address a meaningful category of homes.
Describe the property type served, benefits, limitations, installation requirements, and cost.
