NW 10th Court., Miami, FL 33127, for the provision of vactor truck debris hauling for the

BACKGROUND
The Department of Municipal Services / Public Works requires a hauling service company that
will give prompt and efficient service for vactor truck debris hauling on a contractual, as -needed
basis. Vendor will leave container until filled and then collect and haul to proper waste disposal
facility.
The Purchasing Department notified twenty-four (24) vendors, fourteen (14) downloaded the bid
and the department received one (1) response bid.
As a result of the sole bid received, Purchasing surveyed the market for prices to determine
competitiveness of the prices offered by Waste Management of Dade County. Informally, Allied
Waste/BFI indicated that their pricing would have been $225.00 for hauling a 10 cubic yard
container and $45.00 per ton for disposal. Thus, the bid prices of $180.00 per 20 cubic yard
container plus $60.78 per ton disposal fee offered by Waste Management of Dade County is
lower than the pricing provided by Allied WastelBFI and overall very competitive.
Therefore, award is recommended to the sole responsive and responsible bidder Waste
