Bid No. 26-37 Mowing.pdf

This is a bid document for Bid No. 26-37 related to mowing services at multiple county locations in Tennessee. The project requests quotes for grass mowing services across various locations, with mowing height maintained between 3.50 to 3.75 inches. Services include weed-eating along all structures, curbs, fences, and landscaping areas, with all cuttings removed from site, and blowing or sweeping of parking areas, sidewalks, and pedestrian areas. The mowing schedule requires service every two weeks starting in April, escalating to weekly service from May through the end of September, and returning to every two weeks in October through month-end. All areas within ten feet of buildings must be mowed using either a push mower with a bag or a riding mower with a mulcher to accommodate the specific site requirements.

The bid document establishes specifications for contractor equipment and service methodology to ensure consistency across the multiple county locations. Contractors must demonstrate capability to operate both push and riding mowers with appropriate collection or mulching systems, as different areas within the service locations require different mowing approaches. The contract terms reflect seasonal variations in grass growth, with increased frequency during peak growing months and reduced frequency during spring and fall periods.
