The City of Rifle, located in Garfield County, Colorado, is seeking bids for Fall Clean Up Trucking Services for 2025, with a specific procurement focused on trucking services for a citywide cleanup event. The contract requires two tractor-trailer end dumps with tarps capable of navigating all city streets, including collector and residential areas with steep grades exceeding 20%. Potential bidders must attend a mandatory pre-bid meeting on August 19, 2025, at 9 A.M. and submit electronic bids through BidNet by September 5, 2025, at 12 P.M. Bidders are required to submit any questions to Iris Trevisano by August 29, 2025, at 12 P.M. The city will evaluate bids based on multiple criteria, including the bidder's ability to perform the contract, past performance, compliance with laws, financial resources, and service quality. The trucking services will be performed weekdays from September 22nd to October 3rd, 2025, operating between 7:00 AM and 4:00 PM each day.

The procurement includes a local preference code that provides percentage discounts for local vendors, ranging from 10% for contracts under $1,000 to 2% for contracts of $500,000 or greater, with secondary preferences for Garfield County vendors. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are mentioned, the city reserves the right to reject any or all bids and emphasizes finding the most suitable vendor beyond the lowest price. The City of Rifle will cover tipping fees at the Garfield County landfill, which suggests potential cost savings for the winning bidder. No specific incumbent vendors or existing infrastructure requirements are detailed in the documentation. The exact budget range is not explicitly stated, but the local preference structure and comprehensive evaluation criteria indicate a structured approach to vendor selection that prioritizes quality and local economic impact.
