Trash Can Liners

The Parkway School District in Missouri is seeking quotes for a procurement of trash can liners through a competitive bidding process (Proposal Number 26-63). The district requires 150,000 clear, high-density, 16-micron, 40" x 48" trash can liners, with a preference for a one-time purchase or a potential multi-year contract. Vendors must submit bids electronically through the Parkway School District Bonfire Portal by November 25, 2025, at 2:00 PM CST, with a tentative award date of December 2, 2025. Evaluation criteria include the "lowest and best" bid, considering factors such as specification compliance, vendor supply capability, inventory maintenance, prior district experience, and financial strength. Bidders are required to provide comprehensive specification sheets, samples upon request within 48 hours, and must deliver the liners F.O.B. destination at the Parkway Warehouse in Chesterfield, Missouri, with all associated costs included.

The procurement does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. Vendors must comply with several mandatory requirements, including submission of a signed W-9, Federal Work Authorization form, and Affidavit of Non-Collusion. The district has specific packaging requirements, mandating that each case weigh no more than 25 pounds with only 50 cases per pallet. While no specific budget range is detailed, the procurement allows for potential contract extension and provides flexibility for the district to award items separately or order the entire quantity in a single delivery. Vendors must be enrolled in the E-Verify federal work authorization program for contracts exceeding $5,000 and must demonstrate compliance with domestic product procurement preferences, with a focus on U.S. and Missouri-based products. The district reserves the right to reject any bid and maintains broad discretion in the award process.
