Grinding Services

The City of Peachtree City is soliciting sealed bids for grinding services at its Recycling Center, located at the intersection of SR 74 and Rockaway Road in Fayette County, Georgia. The procurement seeks qualified contractors to provide grinding and potential removal of organic matter, with two primary service options: grinding only, or grinding, loading, and hauling of materials. The estimated annual volume is 3-4 pulls, with approximately 2,000 cubic yards per pull. Bidders must submit pricing for a five-year period (FY2026-FY2030), with prices quoted per cubic yard of post-grinding volume. The contract will initially run through September 30, 2026, with an option to extend for four additional fiscal years. Sealed bids are due by 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday, December 9, 2025, at the Purchasing Department, located at 151 Willowbend Road, Peachtree City. Evaluation will be based on a five-year average price for grinding, loading, and hauling services, with contractors required to provide pricing for both service options. Bidders must submit questions in writing to the Purchasing Manager no later than five business days before the bid submission deadline.

Contractors must meet specific qualification requirements, including providing a minimum of $1,000,000 in combined liability insurance, with the City named as an additional insured. All contractors are required to comply with O.C.G.A. 13-10-91 and register with E-Verify for employee work authorization. Subcontractors will need prior written approval from the Public Works Director and must meet the same insurance requirements. The City reserves the right to reject any or all bids and to waive irregularities as deemed in its best interest. Bids will remain valid for 60 calendar days following the opening date, and no bid may be withdrawn for 90 days after the scheduled receipt time. Payment terms are net 30 days upon invoice submission and approval by the Public Works Department. While no specific set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise requirements are mentioned, contractors cannot be in arrears to the City or any other governmental entity. The procurement allows for potential phased project implementation, providing flexibility in service delivery.
