Description

The City of Austin is seeking a qualified vendor to provide, deliver, install, maintain, and, when required, remove a variety of mobile storage and office containers on a rental or purchase basis. The contract covers a broad inventory of unit sizes and configurations (open‑bay, deluxe, combination, and office units) and requires compliance with Texas Industrialized Housing and Buildings (IHB) standards, ADA, and all relevant building codes. The award will be based on the lowest responsive bid after applicable small‑business and local discounts. The contract term is an initial 24 months with up to three optional 12‑month extensions, and the vendor must be able to respond to routine and expedited service requests 24/7. • Provide a catalog of steel storage containers and mobile office trailers in multiple sizes (8‑ft to 40‑ft) for rental or purchase. • Deliver, install, and secure units on City sites, obtain necessary permits, and supply all required documentation (specs, warranties, MSDS). • Offer ongoing maintenance, repair, and removal services, with response times of 48 hours for standard requests and as fast as 1‑2 hours for expedited calls. • Meet insurance, licensing, and three‑year experience requirements; maintain a permanent operational facility and a business phone line. • Submit pricing, references, and required submittals through the City’s eResponse system by 2 PM CT on 15 Oct 2026.

Budget estimate

$500,000 – $3,000,000

The contract does not disclose a total dollar value, but based on the scope (delivery and installation of dozens of steel containers ranging from $10 k to $40 k each, plus monthly rental rates of $1 k–$3 k per unit) and a 24‑month term, a realistic award could fall between a few hundred thousand dollars for a modest rental volume and several million dollars if the City purchases a large inventory and requires extensive maintenance services. Assuming 30 units at an average $25 k purchase price ($750 k) plus 30 units rented at $2 k/month for 24 months ($1.44 M), the total contract value would be roughly $2.2 M. Therefore a reasonable estimate range is $0.5 M to $3 M.
