Closed top ejector trailers

Westchester County is seeking to procure 23 new closed top ejector transfer trailers for its Department of Environmental Facilities through a competitive Request for Bid (RFB-WC-25257). The trailers must meet specific technical specifications, including a 75 cubic yard capacity, steel body construction, 38'-6" length, and detailed requirements for material gauges, suspension, braking, and hydraulic systems. Bids are due before 2 PM on October 15, 2025, and must include comprehensive documentation about the proposed trailers, including make, model, and full compliance with each specification line item. Bidders are required to provide firm fixed pricing per unit, with the county reserving the right to award the entire bid to the most competitively priced response that meets all technical requirements. The trailers will be delivered to the Material Recovery Facility located at 1100 Ridge Hill Boulevard in Yonkers, NY, with the county maintaining flexibility to increase, decrease, or cancel portions of the order based on available funding and operational needs.

The procurement does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The bid includes additional requirements such as a 3-year warranty, 5-year paint warranty, and a specification that all trailers must be treated with Armour-Seal to prevent rust and corrosion. While the specific budget range is not detailed in the available documentation, the procurement involves 23 transfer trailers with comprehensive technical specifications. Standard municipal procurement process requirements are included, such as vendor insurance requirements and affirmation clauses. The county will evaluate bids based on technical compliance, pricing, and overall value, with the potential to make a full award or partial awards depending on the responses received and the county's operational requirements.
