Docusign Envelope ID: B50ADA26-04C6-427F-8F08-6A9936656373 11 Provide a brief history of your company,
including your company’s core values,
business philosophy, and industry longevity
related to the requested Solutions.

Toter has been in continuous operation since 1962, originally as a subsidiary of Rubbermaid Incorporated. Our headquarters is in North Carolina. The company was organized as a private corporation in 1983 as Applied Products, Inc., and changed the name to Toter Incorporated in 1988. In 2007, Toter was acquired by Wastequip and became its largest acquisition at the time. Wastequip is the leading North American manufacturer of waste handling and recycling equipment focused on manufacturing expertise and product innovation. Toter and other Wastequip divisions position our parent company to offer a full line of products, systems and solutions to collect and transport just about any type of waste and recyclables, and Toter products have been included in a past Wastequip Sourcewell contract. Wastequip is known as the All-In-One waste equipment company, with the Toter division's containers known as Built for Extremes®.

From the very first container produced by our company, Toter has first studies the needs of Participating Entities. Each requires reliable products and services for Best Value. Replacing items and incurring additional services and costs is not best use of funding, people, raw materials, and other resources, and neither is bidding repeatedly. Toter seeks to be the first and best solution in every situation, earning the All-In-One catch phrase by delivering right when you need it.

Toter introduced an automated cart system for curbside garbage collection in the 1960s, earning us our well-deserved reputation as the go-to cart brand for the collection of waste, recycling, and organics. We focus on developing products that combine practical convenience, extreme durability and long-term value through proven industry leading performance and warranty. Today we serve waste haulers and municipalities as well as commercial, industrial and institutional customers through regional manufacturing/distribution facilities located in Statesville, NC (headquarters); Acuna, Mexico; and Del Rio, TX. It is important to note that we are dedicated to the waste industry, not manufacturing for any other industry.

Our company's core values include:
- We always act with safety, honesty and integrity.
- We serve customers to total satisfaction by delivering value oriented, market leading products and services.
- We act quickly but thoughtfully.
- We identify and improve the things that matter most.
- We provide challenging opportunities with clear expectations. - We embrace change.
- We make commitments and keep them, earn trust and create respect. *
12 What are your company’s expectations in the
event of an award?
Toter anticipates a quick transition from our current contract to a new and improved contract. Our sales force, dealers and distributors are ready to sell and provide solutions seamlessly to our customers' needs. We already have the familiarity, tools and staffing in place to continuously promote the Sourcewell contract in the marketplace among existing and potential customers, and to showcase our products and services as total solutions using this contract. Toter would continue and increase promotion in this way throughout the contract term. Toter will involve and improve our dealer and distributor networks' understanding of how Sourcewell satisfies the bidding/proposal processes of customers and allows the customer to obtain product they want and deserve, which also gains for Toter a competitive advantage. We intend to continue revenue growth by continuing to gain market share. *
13 Demonstrate your financial strength and
stability with meaningful data. This could
include such items as financial statements,
SEC filings, credit and bond ratings, letters
of credit, and detailed reference letters.

Upload supporting documents (as applicable)
in the document upload section of your
response. DO NOT PROVIDE ANY TAX
INFORMATION OR PERSONALLY
IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION.

The attached Organizational Chart shows Toter, LLC’s relationship to Wastequip, LLC and ultimately to Patriot Container Corp. Patriot Container Corp. is the level of ownership where we produce our financial statements and report earnings, and we therefore have attached a copy of our most recent unaudited financials. As a privately held company, our financial statements are proprietary trade secrets and we take great lengths to protect the confidentiality of this information by restricting disclosure of this information to those that have a need to know for a specific purpose (typically through non-disclosure agreements). Toter, LLC is providing these financial statements as required by the RFP terms and trusts that Sourcewell will not post this information for public viewing and provide Toter with notice if a FOIA request is made for information that would include these financial statements. *
14 What is your US market share for the
Solutions that you are proposing?
While Toter's exact market share information is company confidential and critical to our strategy for success, we can share more about our market position. Based on our internal estimates, we determined that Toter Residential consistently enjoys a top 3 position in the US market. Toter ProProducts maintains a top 5 position in the US market.
*
15 What is your Canadian market share for the
Solutions that you are proposing?
While Toter's exact market share information Is company confidential and critical to our strategy for success, we can share more about our market position. Even though the Canadian market is not tracked as thoroughly as the US market, we believe Toter Residential also holds a top 3 position in the Canadian market.

Organics collection stresses carts because the density of food waste (6.25 pounds/gallon) is much higher than that of municipal solid waste (garbage) and recyclables (max of 3.5 pounds/gallon). Sourcewell member agencies needing to collect residential and commercial food waste should not face the decision of deploying small, two wheel carts that do not have sufficient load rating for the application. In order to provide member agencies with safe and useful food waste carts, Toter offers a unique line of 21, 32 and 48 gallon automated Organics carts that are load rated and independently certified to regularly receive and dump food waste at the above-mentioned higher density of 6.25 pounds/gallon. In addition, we offer complementary containers to include a 2 Gallon bin for collection of food waste in the resident’s kitchen and a 13 gallon manual bin for curbside collection. Toter also offers 2 and 3 Cubic Yard FELs with higher load ratings to handle heavy food waste.

Only Toter offers a fully automated lid latch, DuraLatch, that latches automatically when the lid is dropped, opens with one finger, and opens automatically when the cart is dumped by the truck. DuraLatch meets the long requested industry demand for the return to a latching cart but without interfering with fully automated collection.

In 2022, Toter developed a 1 Cubic Yard plastic Front Load Container (FL) to complement the already established 2, 3 and 4 Cubic Yard FL containers. This 1 cubic yard container is popular in shared waste collection for multi-housing unit applications. The container will hold around 5-6 standard 33-gallon trash bags, and extends the timeframes for collection events through time.

ToterPro rolled out a new tilt truck design with extra-durable roto molded body and slimmer design, for improved maneuverability through commercial doorways, and inset wheels allow the containers to be nested when fully assembled for easier shipping and storage. - Toter participated in our parent company's Internship Program, specially designed to provide students and recent graduates with incredible career-related experiences. While we strive to give these students transferrable skills, networking opportunities and strong professional portfolios, these paid summer internships also benefit our company with fresh ideas from a tech savvy generation!
Toter continuously researches and implements newer resins for greater durability and moldability, producing carts that are tougher than ever. We consistently deliver on durability with customers reporting service life much longer than he 9 years of average service life of competitor carts owned by surveyed entities, dramatically lowering the carbon footprint by longevity alone, and the added advantage of inclusion of recycled content. This is an ongoing commitment for our company and our customers, widening the environmental sustainability footprint for us both, while integrating technology to maintain containers' Life Cycles high.

These technology solutions increase revenue and gain market share, reduce costs, provide greater stewardship of staff's time, efforts, and resources, and improve customer experiences overall, and when coupled with the ease of use with Sourcewell, Participating Agencies receive these benefits with a contract that satisfies the bidding process! *

Docusign Envelope ID: B50ADA26-04C6-427F-8F08-6A9936656373 43 Describe any “green” initiatives
that relate to your company or to
your Solutions, and include a list
of the certifying agency for each.

Our company initiated the Wastequip Sustainability Report which codifies a formal sustainability program. In 2019, a small team planted the seeds for our sustainability program, and each year since, the ripple of people at the company addressing sustainability has widened.

For the planet, we have control over the products we make and how we make them.

Lifecycle assessments have helped us deeply understand how our processes and products impact the environment. Because one of our biggest impacts is in the raw materials we source, we set a goal to reduce the virgin resin we manufacture with at Toter (while maintaining our industry-leading warranty) and launched the EVR-Green cart, which uses 100% recycled content in the cart body. This year, we are also introducing to the market a steel container that is 10% lighter but just as strong. This not only brings a lower environmental impact, but it will also allow our customers to carry heavier loads and consume less fuel.

Each year, we take one more step to embed people and planet into our business. Our cross- functional CORE Steering Committee ensures that we select the right priorities, understand unintended consequences, overcome unexpected challenges, and hold each other accountable.

Our CapEx and new product development approval processes includes planet considerations.

And, in 2023, our business leaders started presenting greenhouse gas emissions in our monthly business reviews for our Containers and Trucks divisions.

We base our Planet data on the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol Corporate Standard, because it is global, quantitatively rigorous, and consistent with how other companies calculate their emissions.

Although under the GHG protocol, our organizational boundary includes all three of our divisions (Parts & Service, Containers, and Trucks), we’ve been focused on our Trucks and Containers manufacturing, because they are our largest source of emissions.

We include our Scope 1 and 2 emissions in our monthly business reviews for our Containers and Trucks divisions and have improved our data collection, calculation, and visualization processes significantly.

Our Scope 1 emissions comprise stationary combustion to heat our plants and operate machinery, fueling onsite vehicles like forklifts, and welding. Our Scope 2 emissions are electricity.

We track our absolute emissions, the total emissions produced from our facilities, as well as our intensity emissions, which we calculate by dividing the absolute emissions in a month by the weight of products we made that month. This enables us to compare across facilities and gauge our efficiency from a
standardized perspective.

In 2023, our absolute emissions and intensity emissions slightly improved, primarily from improvements in the electric grids our plants operate on.

Our intensity emissions increased marginally this year, driven by our Containers manufacturing and partially offset by our Truck manufacturing.

In 2023, our Scope 1 absolute emissions increased, mostly due to stationary combustion, offset slightly by improvements in our Scope 2 absolute emissions from grid improvements. *

To understand the complete environmental impact of our products, we work with a consultant on cradle-to-grave life-cycle assessments (LCAs), which scientifically measure the carbon footprint of our products. This includes the raw materials we source, inbound transportation to our facilities, manufacturing our products, distributing our products, the use of our products, and the end of life, and complies with ISO 14044 standards.

From both our Toter LCA and our new Steel LCA, the majority of emissions from our products comes from the raw materials we source. We’ve turned what we learned from spreadsheets and models into the real world with products designed to reduce the raw materials we manufacture with and therefore, the most important part of our containers’ carbon footprint.

From our Toter LCA, we learned that 60% of a cart’s carbon footprint comes from using virgin resin (resin that’s brand new), so we set a goal to reduce the amount of virgin resin in our carts by 25% without compromising the warranty.

With a common goal, our Engineering and Quality teams
designed the first cart body on the market to use all PIR and/or PCR in the cart body. It’s available in a black body only, passes the same warranty tests as all of our other Toter products, and has a carbon footprint that’s 37% lower than a standard Toter cart with all- virgin resin.

company, your products, or your
services offer to Sourcewell
participating entities? What makes
your proposed solutions unique in
your industry as it applies to
Sourcewell participating entities?
ONE STOP SHOP
Toter is owned by our parent company, Wastequip, the waste industry’s one stop shop with 12 industry leading brands. We are the leading manufacturer of waste handling equipment in North America. Our company has a network of expertise and a reputation for service and innovation. The Wastequip portfolio includes quality brands from the production of carts, containers and compactors to refuse trucks, parts and service. With a “can do” approach trust Wastequip to be your “All-in-One” equipment, service, and parts provider.

Prince George's County is one of many Participating Agencies that not only prefers Toter Products and Services, but they also have stated a definite preference for the ease of purchasing with our company overall utilizing Sourcewell Contracts for both Steel (Wastequip) and Plastics (Toter), as One-Stop-Shopping!
CART SIZES TO MEET CUSTOMER NEEDS
Toter’s patented EVR® carts (16, 21, 24, 32, 35, 48, 64, and 96 gallons, plus our new Universal series to include 95, 65 and 35 gallon carts, are compatible with semi and fully automated refuse trucks in North America and are the “World’s Toughest Carts™.” All are manufactured in full conformance with ANSI Standards Z245.30-2008 and Z245.60-2008.

Besides roll carts, Toter has a complete line of 1, 2, 3 and 4 cubic yard plastic front load containers. Each container features: steel rod reinforcement, ribbed bottom wear chimes, double-walled lift pockets, integrated bumpers, and more. These features afford customers with enhanced durability, maximum pocket strength, protection for longer life, and maximum space for custom signage.

Our stackable design provides better truckload/shipment and storage efficiency and are even stackable/nestable when the container is fully assembled and ready for use! BUILT FOR EXTREMES
Toter carts are manufactured through our process known as Advanced Rotational Molding™ that allows us to create carts that are Built for Extremes™ Advanced Rotational Molding eliminates built-in stress, weakness and brittleness associated with injection molded products.

In addition, Toter’s use of linear medium density polyethylene (MDPE) is specifically engineered for toughness and high-impact resistance.

In contrast, injection-molded carts are made with high density polyethylene (HDPE), which is more rigid and brittle. HDPE has poor impact resistance and high notch sensitivity. These properties, combined with high stress molding, make an injection cart more likely to crack and split while in service.

It is important to note that it is not necessary to alter or modify the Advanced Rotational Molding process nor materials when producing carts for extremely cold or extremely hot climates. . Again, our process and superior materials together produce a cart that is resilient and best in a combination of extreme temperatures (-40˚C to 120˚C), especially in cold climates, even with rigorous treatment in automated collection systems.

This is a fact of polymer science, not sales literature. Toter carts are the “Best Value” to residents.

Advantages of Advanced Rotational Molding:
• Superior toughness and durability
• Single-piece product design – no seams

• Ability to mold in graphics
INDUSTRY LEADING WARRANTY
Recognized throughout the industry as The World’s Toughest Carts™, Toter carts are produced using a patented, stress
‐free molding technology known as Advanced Rotational
Molding™. This manufacturing process results in tougher, more durable residential carts, backed by Toter with 12 (twelve) year cart body warranty 10 (ten) years of coverage on all other cart components. This warranty is like no other manufacturer’s warranty, industry wide.

Easy to use, and reliable, the warranty demonstrates how we confidently back our carts.

From Day One
When you receive your Toter carts, they are easily made ready to roll. Unlike injection molded carts that nest no more than 2 carts high because of protruding wheels, Toter carts can be stacked up to 8 carts high as they require fewer square feet (without latches installed).

Toter carts can be delivered 3x more quickly than other brands by eliminating trips with more carts per load. Cities and haulers save between $2
‐3 per cart* in fuel, truck usage and
labor expenses due to Toter’s nestability feature.

YEARS 0-10
Toter carts are made with Advanced Rotational Molding, which makes them built for toughness and maximum resistance.

With 1/3 of the failure rate compared to injection molded carts, Toter carts generate fewer customer complaints, repair calls, and fewer part purchases. Over the first 10 years of ownership, this saving amounts to about $4 to $5 per cart (USD), (along with your happier customers).

YEARS 11
‐-12
Only Toter offers a 12‐Year body warranty. Designed to keep working after others fail, they are extremely impact resistant. By having full body protection for 2 additional years (as compared to other brands), you can avoid replacement costs during years 11 and 12. Those savings are $5 to $7 per body or $7 to $9/cart (USD).

YEARS 13
‐20
While injection carts claim a 10‐year service life, Toter has 40 years of experience that says Toter carts consistently last 15 to 20+ years. Imagine avoiding having to buy a replacement fleet of injection carts after year 10. If one half of your Toter carts were to last 15 years and one half were to last 20 years, the Average Savings on Replacement Cart Purchase and Delivery would be $38/cart (USD).

ADD IT UP
You can experience $2
‐3/cart in delivery savings, plus $4‐5/cart in cart maintenance savings, plus $5‐7/body or $7‐9/cart for years 11‐12 additional body warranty years, and $38/cart for longer service life! Total Savings comes to approximately $44 to $46 per cart (USD).

In addition to the above roll cart warranty, our Front Load Containers carry a 3 year container warranty (90 days for casters and non-plastic components).

PARTS INTERCHANGABILITY
In addition to our proven long service life and very low repair rate, key parts on Toter carts are primarily interchangeable among our various cart sizes: wheels, stop bars, and lid hardware. This simplifies maintenance and reduces parts inventory/costs.

RECYCLABILITY
All of the components utilized in Toter containers are fully (100%) recyclable into products of a like or similar nature. This degree of recyclability is known in the industry as "primary recyclability." This will allow the option to sell the recyclable materials into the plastics/steel commodity markets.

PROFESSIONAL PRODUCTS
Toter manufactures an entire line of Professional Products – commercial, industrial and specialized superior containers. Product offerings include Two-Wheeled and Caster Carts, Organics, Medical Waste and Secure Document Management Carts with standard single-wall or rotationally molded double-wall lids for sealing off medical waste and organics (wet) materials, and for securing confidential documents.

Toter carts and containers are an environmentally sustainable investment. Although our carts are the “World’s Toughest Carts™”, and our carts last for 15-20+ years in active service life, Toter carts are 100% recyclable, supporting the recycling of retired carts for municipalities and sustainably closing the loop between new carts and retired carts with the recycling of retired carts, then molding back into new carts. As a leader in the environmental industry, we constantly strive to do our part in being both a good corporate citizen and a leader in new technology to improve our world. Fewer cart failures means fewer carts replaced to maintain a perpetual cart system, reduced vehicle traffic for service, and fewer pounds of raw materials (plastic and steel) consumed. We are also proud to offer more carts from the factory per truckload than most competitors (often with a higher level of assembly from the factory). This will reduce the amount of deliveries needed to fulfill your orders. In short, a more sustainable program results, yielding a reduced impact on our environment. *

48 Describe how your offering
encourages/facilitates increased
participation and efficiencies in
recycling and diversion programs.

Recycling requires far less energy, uses fewer natural resources, and keeps waste from piling up in landfills. Recycling offers significant energy savings over manufacturing with virgin materials (for example, manufacturing with recycled aluminum cans uses 95 percent less energy). Recycling and buying recycled products create demand for more recycled products, decreasing waste and helping our economy. Toter supplies private haulers and recyclers with cart fleets for collection services. Additionally, Toter works with Municipalities across North America that receive grant funding to implement a recycling program such as The Recycling Partnership, SWIFR, ADEM, Kentucky Pride Fund Recycling Grant, and The EPA to name a few.

Our company focuses on researching grant related opportunities and collaborating internally with team members and externally with government entities to educate and implement recycling programs across the continent. Toter's cross functional team of waste industry experts are knowledgeable about the requirements related to the available recycling grant opportunities that have been implemented. Our Team Members will work with Participating Agencies to meet the outlined requirements in our roll cart production.

For instance, Toter carts will meet the Recycling Partnership with carts be manufactured with a minimum of five percent (5%) residential post-consumer plastic content based on the entire mass of the body, lid and wheels of the carts. This resin will have been generated by a household and collected for recycling by a curbside or drop-off recycling program in the United States. This requirement will not be met through the use of post-industrial plastics or plastic sourced from end-of-life carts or bins, but the material will consist of material that was purchased, consumed, and disposed of solely by a residential household in their role as an end-user of a product or package that has been used for its intended purpose and has subsequently been collected for recycling by a curbside or crop-off recycling program in the United States. Toter carts will also be manufactured using an additional twenty percent (20%) of post-consumer or post-industrial recycled content.

When it comes to curbside recycling collection services, we work with Recology, Casella, EDCO, Waste Pro, Waste Management, Santek, CR&R and many other hauling/recycling companies varying in size, with resources readily in place for production, assembly, distribution to residents, cart maintenance and retired carts recycling services.

ContainerPros offers cart removal services to assist in getting old carts from residents when new carts are being introduced. We will collect all old carts from the residents addresses and return them to a designated site of your choice. Optional additional services offered are to sort, grade and stack the old carts for future usage.

ContainerPros also offers a recycling program for old carts that have served their useful life.

We can supply recyclers local to Participating Public Agencies, and/or arrange for old carts to be disassembled, loaded out and transported to a recycling facility. This program offers money back per recycled pound of plastic. This also assists with customer Diversion and Sustainability initiatives.

Toter, LLC reviews all requests for Projects/Bids/Proposals to understand any requirements for utilizing disadvantaged businesses as qualified subcontractors/suppliers. Toter is not a certified disadvantaged Bidder. However, Toter is
committed to utilization of disadvantaged businesses whenever possible, and we set out to identify possible use of
disadvantaged businesses on a case-by-case basis in a
concerted attempt to meet requested levels of participation, and in an overall effort of our company at large, to grow and strengthen smaller, disadvantaged businesses. We also value diversity in employment, knowing that our company and
customers are strengthened by our individuality and purposeful discussion, and our consistently viewing issues and
opportunities with choices from multiple approaches and creative solutions!
In most projects there are possibilities for use of
disadvantaged businesses. We normally search for specific businesses with resources that match the following:

1. Over-the-road trucking of carts to the city (53-foot trailers)

2. Project management of door-to-door delivery of carts to residents or for other work required

3. Supplies, forklift, and/or trucks for local delivery of carts to residents and other work required
Toter further vets discovered disadvantaged businesses for qualifications to perform the work and we consider all cost effective, positive responses. In this Bid, there is an encouragement to utilize disadvantaged businesses. And, at the same time, the scope of work for the contract only affords an opportunity for subcontracting with Item #1 above for common carrier transportation of carts from our plant to the City destination.

Toter already has a working relationship in our daily business with two common carriers, One Horn Transportation Inc, and Royal Express, Inc. We have worked with both carriers for quite a while now to provide reliable and quality service.

Documentation of DBE certification is available upon request for:
- One Horn Transportation – WBE Certified by National
Women’s Business Enterprise
- Royal Express, Inc. - Southwest Minority Supplier
Development Council
Aside from requirements for participation of disadvantaged businesses, Toter continuously demonstrates our overall commitment to employ and do business with disadvantaged businesses in both special projects and daily business. For example, we use a Woman Owned Business to fulfill daily office and bidding supplies needs, and we work with many disadvantaged businesses to perform the work of unloading, assembly and distribution of carts (and related services) to Participating Agencies when required by projects (Items #2 and #3 listed above).

0 % net 30 days. Toter accepts P-card procurements/payments. Our preferred method of payment is wire, ACH or check. *
60 Describe any leasing or financing options available for use by educational or governmental entities.

As a benefit of being a Wastequip division, Toter provides a bridge to solutions for educational or governmental entities to find leasing and financing options through Wastequip Finance, with our finance partner, NCL Government Capital (NCL), the only leasing and financing company in the nation with a leasing and financing contract on Sourcewell (Contract #011620-NCL). We are pleased to offer NCL's over 20 years of specializing in providing competitive equipment financing programs for entities across the nation, providing Sourcewell members access to financing that multiplies their purchasing power potentially six-fold. We understand that funds aren't always available for new and adequate equipment, and the Tax- Exempt Municipal financing offered by Wastequip Finance/NCL through Toter allows agencies to get that equipment now through manageable installment payments that come from their operating budget. We believe that Sourcewell, Toter/Wastequip Finance, and NCL have a common goal to provide solutions to Sourcewell members that will substantially alter the future for all in the most positive ways.

61 Describe any standard transaction documents that you propose to use in connection with an awarded agreement
(order forms, terms and conditions, service level
agreements, etc.). Upload all template agreements or
transaction documents which may be proposed to
Participating Entities.

While doing business seems to be a meticulous task for companies and Participating Agencies alike, Toter seeks to streamline processes for Participating Agencies, all the while setting each up for safe use of data, high service levels, approvals of order details prior to manufacture, and other forms and processes. These transaction documents are established to make sound business sense for our company and all customers. Examples of some of these forms are attached for Sourcewell's perusal.

Bid Number: RFP 120324 Vendor Name: Toter, LLC
Docusign Envelope ID: B50ADA26-04C6-427F-8F08-6A9936656373 63 Describe your pricing model (e.g., line-item discounts or product-category discounts). Provide detailed pricing data (including standard or list pricing and the Sourcewell
discounted price) on all of the items that you want
Sourcewell to consider as part of your RFP response. If applicable, provide a SKU for each item in your proposal.

Upload your pricing materials (if applicable) in the
document upload section of your response.

Toter Residential does not have set list pricing, therefore we are offering a line item ceiling pricing model that is comparable to other co-operative contracts and gives us the flexibility to provide competitive pricing to Sourcewell's participating agencies while protecting us from volatile fluctuations in resin costs. This pricing model aligns well with our dealer network and Sourcewell is their preferred cooperative contract. We have had great success using this same pricing model on the current contract.

Toter Pro Products: pricing model is a 30% discount off list price.

We have provided a detailed price list for all products and services that include model numbers and descriptions. Each price guide will include options available as upgrades to the base pricing for that specific product line
*
64 Quantify the pricing discount represented by the pricing proposal in this response. For example, if the pricing in your response represents a percentage discount from
MSRP or list, state the percentage or percentage range.

Toter Residential Products: because there is not a set list price or MSRP for these products, there a set discount to quantify. We have provided incremental volume discounts in our pricing structure and will offer discounts off the base price for large projects when possible, giving the customer the benefit of making larger purchases and permitting Toter the opportunity to be flexible in competitive situations as required.

Toter Pro Products: pricing is a 30% discount off list price and both list price and discounted price is reflected on the price pages. *
65 Describe any quantity or volume discounts or rebate
programs that you offer.

Toter Residential Products: pricing for Toter's residential products includes incremental volume discounts. For larger projects, we seek to offer discounts based on quantity, delivery timeframes, and other circumstances that may affect pricing. We have found that offering discounts off the base price for large projects gives us the opportunity to be flexible in competitive situations as required. *
66 Propose a method of facilitating “sourced” products or related services, which may be referred to as “open
market” items or "non-contracted items". For example, you may supply such items “at cost” or “at cost plus a
percentage,” or you may supply a quote for each such
request.

We believe we have the broadest range of products and services for waste and recycling containers in the market and have included all our offerings in our proposal. As any new products are developed, we will reach out to Sourcewell and request those be added to our contract. Any "sourced" products or related services will be offered to Sourcewell Members on a Supply Quote basis. We will provide the member with a quote for all items not listed on our Sourcewell contract (the Sourcewell Administrative Fee is and/or will be included as with other products and services to be quoted off this Contract). *
Bid Number: RFP 120324 Vendor Name: Toter, LLC
Docusign Envelope ID: B50ADA26-04C6-427F-8F08-6A9936656373 67 Identify any element of the total cost of acquisition that is NOT included in the pricing submitted with your response.

This includes all additional charges associated with a
purchase that are not directly identified as freight or shipping charges. For example, list costs for items like pre- delivery inspection, installation, set up, mandatory training, or initial inspection. Identify any parties that impose such costs and their relationship to the Proposer.

We have tried to be extremely thorough in including pricing to cover all products, options and services a customer may need with the purchase of waste and recycling containers. However, due to the unique nature of our industry, there may be a few instances where the total cost of acquisition is not included in our proposal pricing.

1. Installation: Due to the customized nature of our business, each customer’s project installation is unique, and therefore, quoted individually. Unique installations may include and are not limited to requirements such as RFID tailored inventory and container management systems, interim storage of containers, additional labor for customer preferences, and more. Any of these products or services outside what we have provided in our proposal will be "Priced on Request".

2. Assembly and Delivery: Special needs for Assembly and Distribution related projects will be “Priced on Request” due to the unique needs of municipalities for each project at hand. the site, or “staging area”, if provided by Toter, will be “Price on Request” also due to the unique needs of each project, in addition to wide price variables for locations. Cart Lifters for Residential Collection Vehicles can be installed with “Price on Request”. Cart Lifters for Toter Pro Products will be quoted and installed with “Price on Request” due to the unique needs of each project.

3. Taxes
‐ Local, State and Federal Sales or Use Taxes or any
applicable ferry costs, customs duties, levies and taxes are not included in our proposed pricing models. If required, these items will be added at time of quote. Also, Canadian GST/PST/HST taxes are not included in our proposed pricing models, and are not paid by Wastequip. If required to be paid by Wastequip, then the Member will be required to reimburse Wastequip for these taxes.

4. Canadian members may require pricing to be provided in Canadian Dollars/Currency (CAD). While our pricing is listed in United States Dollars/Currency (USD), we are certainly able to provide the CAD equivalent pricing based on our USD Sourcewell price list and Foreign Exchange rates from Bank of Canada resources.
*
68 If freight, delivery, or shipping is an additional cost to the Sourcewell participating entity, describe in detail the complete freight, shipping, and delivery program.

Toter is strategically located in the US which allows us to best service our customers. We have extensive import/export experience and an expansive logistics group available to assist Sourcewell Members. Toter is able to involve outside logistic companies to participate in shipping by freight hauler/common carrier, subcontracted off
‐loading, assembly, installation and distribution as required by the Member needs and demands. We will evaluate each order as a unique opportunity and consider the Sourcewell Members order volume and location. Cost of shipping/delivery shall be paid by the End User. Calculations of the freight/delivery charges will be based on prevailing rates at the time of quote and included on quote as a separate line item. This cost will not include the 1.5 % Administrative Fee.
*
69 Specifically describe freight, shipping, and delivery terms or programs available for Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, or any
offshore delivery.

We use a combination of contracted motor carriers and freight forwarders to deliver shipments destined for Alaska, Hawaii, and other offshore locations such as, but not exclusive to Puerto Rico.

We also have dozens of carriers already under contract that participate in delivering all modes of freight across the Canadian provinces. We have extensive import/export experience and an expansive logistics group available to assist Sourcewell Members.

Bid Number: RFP 120324 Vendor Name: Toter, LLC
Docusign Envelope ID: B50ADA26-04C6-427F-8F08-6A9936656373 70 Describe any unique distribution and/or delivery methods or options offered in your proposal.

Toter has the ability to meet unique customer needs with Driver Assistance (truck driver moves product to the entrance/exit of 53' truck for customer to remove off the trailer), lift gates (to meet special circumstances with no dock, etc.), combined loads (multi-stop capability to drop at up to 3 locations close together). For our Pro Products and individual customer orders (".COM" customers), we provide drop ship delivery. Obtained over decades, we have experience in the field delivering the assets to their final location -- a resident's dwelling. We offer all types of delivery, to include alley, curbside, up-to-door and special location deliveries per requirements of customers. We recognize that no two projects are alike and that every customer could have specific needs. That allows us to be flexible to meet those specific needs. We do this by thoroughly vetting the customer scope of work. In simple terms, “What are you trying to accomplish and what challenges do you foresee”? We believe that Data is King? Being able to discuss the project, with the customer, and to understand the data, allows us to customize our services to provide the best experience! We do not provide “cookie cutter” services, we provide solutions.

Toter offers the industry’s best and most unique delivery option, Fully Factory Assembled or “Ready to Roll”. Member agencies can forget about missing parts, lack of available labor to assemble carts, and other normal assembly related issues. Because Toter carts nest when fully assembled, neat and safe stacks of 6 fully assembled carts high make the work of Public Works and Solid Waste Managers easier and more predictable. For member agencies who want to pay less freight per cart, our standard shipment of carts “2/3rd’s Assembled” means that the only assembly is attaching the wheels after carts are delivered to member locations. Then the cost savings of Nestability kicks in as up to three (3) times as many fully assembled Toter carts will fit on a city delivery truck as compared to any other brand (none are fully Nestable).
*
71 Specifically describe any self-audit process or program that you plan to employ to verify compliance with your
proposed agreement with Sourcewell. This process includes ensuring that Sourcewell participating entities obtain the proper pricing.

Toter's sales team works closely with each customer to identify solutions and provide a quote that meets their requirements. All quotes off our current Sourcewell agreement include the Sourcewell logo and Contract number/information of reference, which clearly identifies that the Sourcewell contract is being used to our internal team and customers. Quotes go through an internal approval process where pricing is verified before being sent to the customer.

Once the Member's Purchase Order is received, our customer service team codes the order as a "Sourcewell" sale into our order entry system. Using this code, we can easily generate reports from our order entry system. All reports are checked for accuracy by comparing to quotes from our Salesforce application to ensure the order was coded appropriately and included in the reporting. *
72 If you are awarded an agreement, provide a few examples of internal metrics that will be tracked to measure whether you are having success with the agreement.

Toter develops monthly, quarterly and annual targets to drive business to include municipal sales. This is tracked closely to make sure our sales team is proactively working to meet theses goals.

We review and track sales off all directly bid contracts versus cooperative contracts to make sure our sales team continues to lead with cooperative agreements and identify opportunities to discuss cooperative purchasing to those municipalities that are still going through the cumbersome bid process.

We also review annual sales specific to sales off the contract to review and compare to prior sales history to determine YoY trends.

This has shown our greatest measure of success with continued YoY growth from sales off our current Sourcewell contract including almost doubling sales in 2023.
*
73 Provide a proposed Administration Fee payable to
Sourcewell. The Fee is in consideration for the support and services provided by Sourcewell. The propose an
Administrative Fee will be payable to Sourcewell on all completed transactions to Participating Entities utilizing this Agreement. The Administrative Fee will be calculated as a stated percentage, or flat fee as may be applicable, of all completed transactions utilizing this Master Agreement
within the preceding Reporting Period defined in the
agreement.

Toter is proposing a 1.5% administrative fee that is calculated and included in the contract dollar amount for products listed in our pricing section. Please note that freight costs will not be included in this fee.

Solutions offered, including used, offered in
the proposal.

Toter, LLC is a Wastequip brand which is a manufacturer and marketer of high- quality plastic containers and related products, solely dedicated to the waste industry for residential, hauler, industrial, commercial and retail accounts. We are dedicated to the waste industry, not manufacturing for any other industry. Our products are built to last and manufactured using our Advanced Rotational Molding process, which results in "Built for Extremes" stronger, more durable products than those from injection-molded manufacturers. Or company, since 2016, has backed our residential roll carts with a 12-year cart body warranty, and 10 years on all other carts components. No other manufacturer/brand has sought to provide a matching standard warranty industry-wide!
Our containers are categorized into two areas:
- Residential Products and Solutions - primarily for municipalities/government entities for waste collection. We "cart" entire cities, counties, townships, parishes, and regions with carts for refuse, recycling, organics, yard waste and other specialized needs. We offer the options and features to customize containers, and when combined with the advantages of Toter carts, our customers have successful waste programs. We also offer the options and services solutions to round out the customers' programs, with lifters to mount onto collection vehicles, special recycling lid features, and a seemingly endless list of available options, based on our long- term and current experience with customer needs. Special options for roll carts are Unloading, Assembly and Distribution of carts to municipal customers, Cart keep them rolling!), and Technology/RFID identification of carts to track carts at municipal properties and maintain inventory through time with tracking of changing locations, repairs, collection issues (cart was not at the curb, etc.), which has quite streamlined Participating Agencies' cart usage with ease.
- Pro Products and Solutions - primarily for industrial, commercial and institutional customers, we have designed containers and end-to-end solutions designed to safely and efficiently collect, transport and dispose of waste and recyclables. Our containers and waste handling equipment offer end-to-end solutions designed for educational, healthcare, food service, manufacturing, hospitality, convention centers, stadiums, public spaces, facility management, retail (back of house), construction, and more!
For all our offerings, we specialize in consulting with our customers to create customized products and solutions, considering waste streams, volume, staffing, layout, footprint, flow, environmental requirements and storage limitations. Unlike competitors who may sell off-the-shelf products, we specialize in consulting with our customers to create customized waste management solutions, and we offer technology solutions identified in later questions within this platform.

Specific to Toter Residential Products and Solutions, we offer a wide range of services:

Receiving and Unloading: Receive the loads as they arrive from Toter, per a predetermined ship schedule, then unload the stacks of carts and arrange them on the customer site by size and waste stream, if applicable.

Assembly: Assemble the stacks of carts in preparation of delivery to the resident address listing, or for storage, as determined in the scope of work meetings.

Assembled carts will be stacked according to size and waste stream, if applicable.

Distribution: Distribution of carts to the service area residents as predetermined Bid Number: RFP 120324 Vendor Name: Toter, LLC
Docusign Envelope ID: B50ADA26-04C6-427F-8F08-6A9936656373 during scope of work meetings. Carts will generally be placed at the curbside of the appropriate address, unless special attention is called out during the scope meetings.

Data Collection - Record Serial Numbers: Serial numbers of the cart delivered to a specific address will be recorded to the address listing provided by the customer.

This will assist customers in tracking their assets in the field. Upon completion of the project, we will provide customers with a completed address listing showing the appropriate serial number of the cart delivered to each address. This will be done when a single cart per address is delivered, as well as when multiple carts and streams are delivered to a single address. When project is complete, customer will have the most up to date data on assets and where they are located.

Data Collection - RFID Scanning: RFID tags will be scanned, to the address listing provided by the customer per each cart delivered and associated to that particular address. When RFID tags are scanned as a delivery method, the following data will also be collected: RFID tag number, Serial Number, time stamp, and geo coordinates. This will assist customer in tracking their assets in the field. Upon completion of the project, we will provide customer with the completed address listing showing the appropriate data set of the cart delivered to each address. This will be done when single cart per address is delivered, as well as, when multiple carts and streams are delivered to an address. When project is complete, customer will have the most up to date data on assets and where they are located.

Sticker/Label Application: A customer provided sticker/label will be applied to the cart/container as described in scope of work. This can be done on new project where all new carts receive label/sticker prior to distribution. Or, labels can be applied to carts that were previously in the field.

Old Cart Retrieval: Old carts may be retrieved and brought back to the customer site for either future use or disposal (recycling). This service can be provided in conjunction with new cart deliveries to ensure no disruption of waste services.

Additional items can be contracted: sorting of old carts to specifications, disassembly of carts to be recycled, loading of carts to be recycled onto trailers for transport to recycler. We would manage the whole process to provide a seamless solution for retrieval and disposal of any old carts.

Route Audits: Route auditing service could include: auditing service levels, auditing income, route ID verification, waste characterization, lid flips, contamination material ID, etc. We would determine your route auditing needs and provide a plan and the associated crews to complete that plan. At the end of the project, the customer would have a cleansed route and all associated data points required to adequately understand those routes and how it is affecting their business.

Commercial Bin Delivery: Delivery of commercial bin (FEL’s and REL’s) to all associated commercial addresses. Receiving of commercial bins and assembling commercial bins is also offered. Just as with the residential deliveries, a scope of work will be established to provide a comprehensive solution to your commercial bin needs.

Commercial Bin Exchange: Exchange of commercial bins (FEL’s and REL’s) for all associated commercial addresses. This service provides delivery of new bins and removal of old bins at the same time. Receiving delivered commercial bins and assembling commercial bins is also offered. Just as with the residential deliveries, a scope of work will be established to provide a comprehensive solution to your commercial bin needs.

Cart Maintenance: Cart Maintenance Services are offered to provide a seamless solution for all of the customer cart maintenance needs. From new deliveries, cart removals, cart repairs, and more, we provide piece of mind that all resident requests will be fulfilled within the agreed upon service level agreement. We provide inventory level management to ensure that you always have assets to keep each resident with the appropriate carts for waste disposal. Assist in managing warranty claims, and keeping all carts cleaned and prepped for return to service. Managing all parts associated with the cart inventory ensures cost savings may be realized with repurposing where appropriate. Having a cart maintenance provider will give you peace of mind and produce cost savings.
