Code Compliance – Vehicle Towing Services (Nuisance Abatement)-REBID

The City of Toledo’s Division of Code Compliance is rebidding a one‑year contract (with three optional one‑year renewals) for vehicle towing, removal, storage, and disposal services supporting nuisance‑abatement activities. Qualified towing contractors must submit electronic bids through PlanetBids, provide required city, annual, and project paperwork, and meet bid‑guaranty, licensing, insurance, and living‑wage obligations. No minimum volume is guaranteed, so work volume will depend on city‑directed tow requests. • Scope includes towing of cars, trucks, motorcycles, trailers, RVs, boats, dumpsters, and oversized or non‑drivable items from a variety of locations (alleys, grass, tight spaces, etc.). • Contractor must hold a current City of Toledo police tow license, maintain $1 M liability coverage (additional insured), and submit a bid bond or certified check ($500) as guarantee. • Response‑time expectations: emergency tow within 30 minutes, urgent tow same‑day, routine tow within two business days; performance monitored by the city.
