About this file
This is Addendum No. 1 to Invitation to Bid (ITB) 26-00414 for Biohazardous Waste Removal Services issued by Hillsborough County, Florida on September 22, 2026. The County seeks a qualified contractor to provide biohazardous waste removal and disposal services to Fire Rescue, Pet Resources Department, Public Utilities, and the Medical Examiner's Office for a five-year period. The original bid close date of September 24, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. has been extended to October 1, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. The estimated project value is $178,807.86.
The addendum modifies several contract requirements. Bidders must hold a current Biomedical Waste Transporter Permit from the Florida Department of Health and be listed on the registered Biomedical Waste Transporter List at the time of bid submission and throughout the contract term; failure to demonstrate compliance is grounds for rejection or termination. Training requirements have been revised to require the contractor to provide an initial Department of Health certification virtual training for appropriate County staff and annual refresher training course material in person or via digital file that can be used to orient new employees throughout the year. The addendum removes previous restrictions on training scheduling and eliminates a previously required paragraph entirely. A Cone of Silence is in effect prohibiting proposers from communicating with County employees, Board members, or their representatives regarding the procurement, except through designated procurement department staff and the County's assigned attorney.
