Car and Truck Washing Services

Maricopa County is seeking car and truck washing services through a Request for Quotes (RFQ) to establish firm fixed pricing agreements for full-service vehicle washing. The procurement targets washing services for county vehicles, primarily including passenger vehicles, light trucks, and full-size vans across multiple geographic zones within the county. Vendors must offer two primary service levels: basic and deluxe wash services, with options for upholstery and carpet shampooing, and provide pricing for individual washes and tiered monthly unlimited wash packages based on fleet size. Bidders are required to have a minimum of three years of experience operating full-service car wash locations and must meet specific performance requirements, including using environmentally safe products and maintaining professional standards. The solicitation requires vendors to submit bids electronically through BidNet Direct by October 13, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time, with the contract initially set for a one-year term and options to extend for up to two additional one-year periods or on a month-to-month basis for six months.

The procurement does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Vendors must provide detailed information about their wash locations, including the number of locations within various geographic zones in Maricopa County and their ability to accommodate oversized vehicles. Insurance requirements include commercial general liability, automobile liability, and workers' compensation coverage with specified minimum limits. The county reserves the right to award the contract in full or in part to a single vendor or multiple vendors, with the final award at the sole discretion of the issuing department. While specific contract values are not explicitly stated, the solicitation includes a detailed pricing structure with tiered rates for different fleet sizes (1-5 vehicles, 6-10 vehicles, 11-20 vehicles, 21-50 vehicles, and 51+ vehicles) and various wash service levels. Vendors must complete registration on the Maricopa Department of Finance website upon award and are required to provide comprehensive company information, including payment terms and willingness to accept procurement cards.
