30 Yard Roll-Off Truck

The City of Cheyenne, Wyoming, located in Natrona County, is seeking to procure one new 30-yard roll-off truck for its Sanitation Division through a competitive bidding process (Bid E-18-25). The procurement requires a comprehensive vehicle with specific technical specifications, including a detailed chassis, engine, transmission, and hydraulic cable lift system. Bidders must respond to each specification line item by indicating compliance using a "Y" or "N" format, with potential bid rejection for unclear responses. A mandatory pre-proposal meeting was held on March 21, 2025, at 2:45 pm, and the bid submission deadline is set for April 7, 2025, at 2:00 pm, with a combined Zoom bid opening scheduled. The specifications mandate extensive warranty coverage, including two-year/100,000-mile bumper-to-bumper coverage for the cab and chassis, five-year/100,000-mile coverage for the engine and transmission, and two-year warranties for the body and tarp system. Additional requirements include the installation of a FleetMind camera system, VHF 2-way radio, and comprehensive documentation and training.

The bid includes provisions for Wyoming resident bidders, who may receive a preference if their bid is not more than 5% higher than the lowest non-resident bid. The city is offering a trade-in of a 2013 Peterbilt 348 truck with 230,379 miles and has included a 15% surcharge and escalator contingency to account for potential cost increases. Bidders must provide a 5% bid guarantee and comply with equal employment opportunity requirements and drug-free workplace policies. The estimated purchase order issuance is scheduled for April 29, 2025, following city council and finance committee approvals. Three bid options are available, with bidders required to specify the make and model of both the truck chassis and roll-off body. The total purchase includes potential liquidated damages for delivery delays and requires all titles to be made out to the City of Cheyenne and delivered to the City Fleet Maintenance shop. While a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the comprehensive specifications and multiple bid options suggest a significant investment in modernizing the city's sanitation fleet infrastructure.
