About this opportunity

The City of Gainesville, located in Alachua County, Florida, is seeking a qualified contractor to provide pick up, disposal, and recycling services for used oils, filters, and hazardous materials for its Regional Transit System (RTS) and Fleet Management Department. The contract, identified as Q-RTSX2603, will run from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2027, with potential for three additional one-year extensions. The scope of work includes collecting and disposing of specific waste products, including 12,100 gallons of used motor oil, 1,766 gallons of used engine coolant, 70 drums of used oil filters, 12 drums of absorbents, 4,500 gallons of sludge, 7,090 gallons of petroleum contact waters, and 4,000 gallons of waste water. Bidders must have a minimum of five years' experience in similar services and will be required to provide drums at no cost, follow all federal, state, and county regulations, and perform pickups on specific cycles (21-day cycles for Centralized Garage and RTS, and 45-day cycles for Springhill Garage). The city will evaluate bids by multiplying unit costs by estimated quantities, with the award going to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The solicitation was released on June 9, 2025, with questions due by June 25, 2025, at 11:59 pm, and responses due by July 10, 2025, at 3:00 pm.

The contract requires comprehensive compliance with various legal and ethical standards, including an Anti-Human Trafficking Affidavit, E-Verify compliance, and living wage ordinance adherence. Contractors must maintain specific insurance coverages, including workers' compensation, public liability ($1,000,000 per occurrence), and automobile liability ($500,000 per occurrence). Bidders will need to submit detailed documentation, including business licenses, references, and regulatory compliance certificates. While no specific set-aside designations are mentioned, the contract includes provisions that suggest a commitment to ethical business practices. Successful bidders may be required to provide additional documentation such as a Spill Prevention, Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan and hazardous materials certifications. Although a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the extensive list of waste materials and the two-year contract term suggest a significant scope of work. The contract is subject to appropriations and funding availability, with the city reserving the right to terminate if funding becomes unavailable.
