About this opportunity
The Town of Waterford Department of Public Works is soliciting bids for seasonal mowing and trimming services at the Waterford Landfill, 85 Miner Lane, with proposals due September 3, 2026, and a non-mandatory pre-bid walk scheduled for August 13, 2026 at 11:00 a.m.
The scope covers approximately 18 acres of vegetative cover on the closed landfill, including open flat and sloped areas, areas around monitoring wells and tree lines, berms, and rock-lined drainage ditches. The contractor must perform two mowings and trimmings annually — one in mid-May and one at the end of September — for a three-year contract period through 2029. Grass must be cut to a height of not less than 6 inches using a front or four-wheel drive tractor with roll-over protection and a 15-foot wide-cut rotary batwing-style mower equipped with mulching blades. Power hand trimmers with full blade guards are required for manual-cutting areas. All work must comply with OSHA, state, and federal safety regulations, including proper use of seat belts, roll-over protection, and personal protective equipment. Operations are limited to Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. during normal working hours, with extended hours or Saturday work available only by Town approval.
The contractor must participate in an inspection with the Town prior to commencing work and upon completion of each mowing cycle. The contractor bears sole responsibility for site conditions following the initial inspection and must indemnify and hold harmless the Town of Waterford against claims or liabilities arising from contracted activities. The specification cautions that hazardous site conditions include slick grass on slopes, buried or semi-buried rocks in drainage ditches, and potential burrowing animals or stinging insects. No contract value is stated.
