Description

The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) is seeking qualified towing firms to provide on‑call, pre‑positioned emergency towing services throughout the Richmond District. The scope covers heavy‑ and light‑duty wrecker support during winter storms, hurricanes, or other emergencies to clear stalled, abandoned, or stuck vehicles from designated highway locations. Vendors must be able to supply two heavy‑duty wrecker crews and two light‑duty wrecker crews at each of the six specified zones, responding on an hourly basis.

Budget estimate

$300,000 – $700,000

Based on typical hourly rates for emergency towing (≈ $150 / hr for heavy‑duty wrecker, $100 / hr for light‑duty) and the requirement of two crews per location across six zones, the contract could generate roughly 12 heavy‑duty and 12 light‑duty crew‑hours per incident. Assuming an average of 200 incident‑hours per season, total revenues may range from $300 k to $700 k, depending on the frequency of emergencies and overtime premiums.
