Pricing should be listed per unit with an option for laundry equipment. Delivery and setup are the only requirements, with no long term services.

Either a Queen or a Full-sized bed would be acceptable; a twin would be as well. The mattress just needs to be better than a foam pad.

Does it definitely have to be all electric, would propane be accepted?

Quote – Schedule of Items
You want a quote for 10 units and not 1 and preferably units with washer and dryer as an option? You also are wanting a lump sum for 10 even though you want each unit price correct?
The Schedule of Items should have a unit price and a total price column. The Unit Price should be inclusive of shipping per unit. The total price is calculated by taking the QTY * Unit Price = Total Price.
Option Item is the Laundry unit in each trailer. It may or may not be exercised. The Lump Sum was not asked for, as there is the potential to pick quantity from any number of quotes received.
