About this file
This Addendum #1 document, issued by the City of Roswell Purchasing Division in Roswell, Georgia, modifies ITB #21-363-J for the procurement of front-loading, rear-loading, and dumpster delivery garbage trucks for the city's Environmental and Public Works Department. The addendum incorporates revised specifications for front and rear loading garbage trucks effective December 16, 2021. The city is seeking one or more completed units consisting of a 40-cubic-yard front-loading refuse collection truck with an air ejection system, a 27-cubic-yard rear-loading refuse collection truck with high compaction capability, and associated chassis specifications. Prospective bidders must acknowledge receipt of this addendum by completing, signing, and submitting the acknowledgment form with their proposal to the City of Roswell Purchasing Division at Roswell City Hall. The original deadline for questions was Tuesday, December 14, 2021 at 5:00 PM, with ITB documents available through the city's electronic bonfire portal at no charge.
The front-loading truck specification requires a 40-cubic-yard capacity body weighing no more than 17,200 pounds, constructed with AR450 steel sides and floor components, featuring a 12-cubic-yard hopper with hydraulic sliding cover, dual 6.5-inch by 182-inch telescopic packing cylinders generating minimum 133,000 pounds of packing force, and a top-hinged bustle-type tailgate with hydraulic operation. The rear-loading truck specification calls for a 27-cubic-yard capacity body weighing no more than 15,400 pounds with 10-gauge 80,000 PSI steel construction, a minimum 3.55-cubic-yard hopper, dual packing cylinders, and a 4-stage 7.5-inch bore telescopic ejection cylinder. Both trucks require LED clearance and warning lights, backup cameras with monitors, external audio backup alarms, and compliance with ANSI Safety Standards. Chassis specifications for the front-loader require a 2022 or newer cabover model with a 6-cylinder diesel engine producing 355 horsepower and 1,260 foot-pounds of torque, an Allison 4500 RDS transmission, 20,000-pound front axle capacity, 46,000-pound rear axles, and a 66,000 GVW rating. The rear-loader chassis requires a 2023 or newer conventional cab with a Cummins L9 engine producing 350 horsepower and 1,050 foot-pounds of torque, an Allison 3000 RDS transmission, 18,000-pound front axle, 46,000-pound rear axle capacity, and a 64,000 GVW rating. Both trucks include warranties of one year for body and hydraulics and two years for cylinders, with all pricing and delivery timelines to be completed by bidders on the provided bid sheets.
