The City of Belmont, Mississippi is requesting bids for a 23 cubic yard high-compaction automated refuse collection truck with a hydraulically actuated packer body and mechanical lifting device, with bids due September 4, 2026. The equipment must be new, unused, and manufactured in the USA by an ISO 9001 certified manufacturer with at least ten years of experience producing automated refuse collection equipment — a capability filter that eliminates non-certified and foreign manufacturers.

The truck must handle 30 to 100 gallon refuse containers, compact refuse, and transport it to landfills or transfer stations with hydraulic ejection capability. Detailed specifications cover the refuse body, chassis, engine, transmission, axles, suspension, brake systems, and ancillary features. The engine must deliver 350 HP at 2200 RPM with 1050 lb/ft torque; the transmission is specified as Allison 3000 RDS automatic; the hydraulic reservoir must hold 50 gallons. The truck must include a camera system with GPS tracking and telematics capabilities (with the City responsible for digital monitoring service activation post-delivery), white DuPont high-performance polyurethane enamel paint finish, and compliance with ANSI Safety Standard Z245.1-2012 and FMVSS #108 for lighting.

The manufacturer shall provide a five-year complete body warranty covering 10,000 hours, five-year engine and aftertreatment warranty for 150,000 miles, five-year unlimited mileage transmission warranty, and five-year base chassis warranty for 150,000 miles. Delivery is F.O.B. Belmont, Mississippi; bidders must provide estimated delivery times. Bids may be submitted in person, via email to mayor@cityofbelmontms.com, or by mail. Bidders must complete a detailed proposal form indicating compliance with each specification item or noting any deviations.
