About this opportunity
The Town of Plainfield, Connecticut is requesting sealed proposals for snow removal services to supplement its municipal fleet during the 2026-2027 winter season, with bids due October 29, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. at Town Hall.
The scope covers snow plowing at multiple municipal facilities and streets, including the Aldrich Library in Moosup, police and fire stations, and associated parking areas. Bidders must submit a single total season price for the complete scope and familiarize themselves with site conditions before proposing. The Town supplies sand and salt; contractors must provide all personnel, equipment, fuel, and maintenance. The contract period runs through June 30, 2027. Bidders must submit a service plan, equipment list with backup resources, personnel qualifications, and at least three references for comparable municipal or commercial snow removal work. A current certificate of insurance is required before work begins, and bidders must not owe delinquent taxes to the Town.
Evaluation is weighted as follows: total season price (50 points), with the lowest responsive bid receiving 40 points and others scored proportionally; references and past performance (20 points); relevant experience and qualifications (10 points); equipment and staffing capacity (10 points); and service approach and availability (10 points). The Town is not obligated to award to the lowest-priced bidder and reserves the right to reject any or all bids.
Payment is structured in four equal installments of 25 percent each in November 2026, December 2026, January 2027, and February 2027, contingent upon available appropriations. The season price must remain firm throughout the contract period with no additional charges accepted unless stated in the proposal. Sealed bids must be delivered to the Finance Director at 8 Community Avenue, Plainfield, CT 06374. Bid packages and addenda are available at www.plainfieldct.org or from the Finance Department. Questions may be directed to Lisa Madden, Finance Director, at 860-230-3005 or lmadden@plainfieldct.org.
