Disaster Debris Removal Services

The City of Groveland, Florida is soliciting proposals for disaster debris removal, reduction, hauling, and lawful disposal services on an annual requirements basis, with proposals due August 11, 2026. No set-asides or preference programs are identified.

The scope covers debris management before, during, and after emergency events, storms, hurricanes, or other incidents generating debris within the City's jurisdiction. Services are required on an as-needed basis contingent upon disaster events; the RFP does not specify item quantities. The contract includes a FEMA/Federal Funding Contract Rider, indicating that Federal Emergency Management Agency financial assistance may be used to fund the agreement.

The anticipated contract term is three years with two additional one-year renewal terms exercisable at the City's sole discretion. Pricing shall be submitted as firm, fixed price through Exhibit B via separate Excel file upload to VendorLink. All prices remain firm during the initial term; adjustments during renewal periods are permitted only if substantial increases occur in manufacturer production costs and do not result in vendor profit margin increases. Price decreases at the manufacturer level must be reflected immediately in contract pricing. No bid bond or performance bond is required. Insurance requirements are classified as Service Tier C for contracts exceeding $500,000 per repair.

The questions or comments deadline was July 28, 2026 — this date has passed. No pre-bid conference or site visit is required. The public bid opening will be held virtually via Microsoft Teams. All bids must be submitted electronically through https://www.myvendorlink.com/external/home. The City reserves the right to accept or reject any and all bids, split awards among multiple bidders, or rebid depending on the City's best interests. No incumbent contractor is identified.
