Bidders are required to provide cost quotes per 20-yard trailer load delivered to each specified location, with delivery and placement contingent upon MassWildlife staff coordination.

To qualify as an SBPP participant, businesses must have been operational for at least one year, employ 50 or fewer full-time equivalent employees, and demonstrate average gross revenues of $15 million or less over three years.
