The City of Worcester is procuring supplemental truck and roll‑off container services to support its Department of Public Works & Parks leaf‑collection operations. Vendors must provide 30‑yard primary containers (and optionally 25‑29‑yard secondary containers), staff qualified drivers, and keep equipment ready at least six days a week, eight hours each day. The contract is a non‑exclusive, one‑year sealed‑bid award (Nov 2024‑Oct 2025) paid on a single hourly rate that includes equipment and labor; prompt‑pay discounts are considered only for terms of 30 days or more. Bids were received from nine vendors, all of which were placed on the eligible award list. Key points:
• Service: truck + open‑top roll‑off container (30 yd primary, 25‑29 yd secondary) for leaf collection support.
• Availability: ≥ 6 days/week, ≥ 8 hours/day, garage within 10 mi of City Hall.
• Pricing: single hourly rate (equipment + operator); lowest net hourly rate wins.
• Insurance: $1 M/$2 M GL, $1 M auto liability, workers’ comp required.
