This is an Invitation to Bid (ITB) 2026-1200-0108 issued by the State of Alaska's Department of Public Safety, specifically the Division of Alaska Wildlife Troopers, for a household goods moving service from Dillingham to North Pole. The solicitation seeks a contractor to transport approximately 3,770 pounds of household goods and a 2006 Jeep Wrangler, with two bidding categories for standard transportation and vehicle shipping via barge in Spring 2026. The contract period will run from the anticipated award date of October 20, 2025, with pack and load dates scheduled between November 3-7, 2025, and delivery dates between November 18-28, 2025. Bids must be submitted electronically by October 6, 2025, at 1:30 pm AKST, with all questions directed in writing to Procurement Specialist Calin Logan.

The contract is structured as a firm fixed-price type with precise service delivery requirements, covering up to 15,000 pounds for supervisory and Public Safety Employees Association members. Evaluation will be based on fixed pricing per line item, with bidders able to propose for one or both categories, and payment determined by certified weight tickets. Contractors must provide a heated warehouse with fire protection and pest control, comply with state and federal regulations, and maintain specific insurance coverage. The estimated total move value appears to be modest, likely ranging from $5,000-$10,000. The state will directly invoice employees for costs exceeding 15,000 pounds and storage beyond 30 days. No specific set-aside designations or incumbent vendor are mentioned, and bidders must complete the attached bid schedule spreadsheet without alterations, confirming service capabilities including the ability to move firearms during the household goods move.
