Snow Removal, As-Needed

Clarkstown Central School District is requesting bids on as-needed snow removal services at multiple district locations in New City, New York, with sealed bids due October 22, 2026 at 12:00 PM. The contract term is one year from award date.

The scope covers snow removal at twelve elementary schools, three secondary schools (two high schools and one middle school), the Transportation Department Bus Garage, Birchwood School, and the District Office. Snow removal must commence within one hour of district notification and be completed by 6:00 AM on school days; a three-inch accumulation threshold triggers removal during school hours (7:00 AM–2:00 PM). The District reserves the right to award to multiple contractors for sufficient coverage.

Pricing is structured per location across four service categories: snow events accumulating 0–6 inches, 6–12 inches, each additional inch over 12 inches, and salting services as requested. Bidders must also quote hourly rates for front-end loader and salter equipment and unit costs for salt. A $250 bid deposit (certified check or bid bond) is required with submission.

Successful bidders must provide three references for similar work within the past five years and a Certificate of Experience. Insurance requirements include Commercial General Liability of $1 million per occurrence / $2 million aggregate, Automobile Liability of $1 million combined single limit, statutory Workers' Compensation and Employers' Liability, and Excess Insurance of $1 million per occurrence / aggregate.

The District guarantees no minimum or maximum purchases and reserves the right to reject any or all bids, purchase from state contracts if lower pricing is available, or terminate upon thirty days' written notice. Awards will be made to the lowest responsible bidder within ninety days of bid opening. Bidders are strongly encouraged to conduct site visits by contacting the Facilities Office at 845-639-6433. Sealed bids must be submitted to Sabrina Alvarado, Purchasing Department, 62 Old Middletown Road, New City, NY 10956, with public bid opening at the same time and location.
