Selecting and Maintaining Vendors

This contract would be signed by each vendor everytime they pick up stuff, we send it to them to fill out the material weights, etc. - it needs to be tied to the invoice that they leave and sent to them in a timely manner for them to sign and return. This would continue until we have determined that the vendors weight reports to us are reasonable/accurate and the end markets are acceptable. At that point they could switch to form 2 (below) that certifies them for a year and we rely entirely on the reports provided to us. Form 2 would be used by current vendors we are happy with. (In my opinion that would be Earth Protection Services, Quantum Resources, Total Reclaim, Bob's Metals (Schnitzer Steel),
