High Country Hand Wash LLC

High Country Hand Wash LLC, a woman-owned small disadvantaged business based in Salida, Colorado, manufactures and delivers trailer-mounted potable and graywater truck/handwashing stations to the U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management as a prime contractor operating entirely under total small business set-asides. The company competes on multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) covering western U.S. regions and delivers firm-fixed-price delivery orders and purchase orders for mobile sanitation equipment and services supporting fire suppression, emergency response, and land management operations.

High Country Hand Wash LLC operates as a for-profit Limited Liability Company and holds self-certification as a small disadvantaged business and woman-owned small business (WOSB). Its capability portfolio is specialized and narrow: trailer-mounted potable and graywater handwashing stations, mobile sanitation services, and associated personnel deployment for wildland fire incident response and Forest Service operations. Representative work includes a $36,920 delivery order from the Forest Service Rocky Mountain Region (Region 2) awarded July 10, 2026, for mobile handwashing and sanitation services in Delta, Colorado, a $27,360 delivery order from Region 2 on July 2, 2026, for the same services in Durango, and a $18,460 delivery order from Region 2 on August 13, 2025, also for mobile handwashing in Durango. The company also supplies equipment: a $9,440 purchase order from the Forest Service Idaho Region on May 1, 2026, for a handwashing station in Boise, and a $15,620 purchase order from Idaho on June 1, 2025, for a trailer-mounted handwashing station, Type 2.

Customer concentration is extreme and unevenly distributed across the vendor's footprint. The Forest Service Rocky Mountain Region (Region 2) accounts for 7 awards and $141 thousand in combined potential value, while the National Interagency Fire Center (under Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management) accounts for 3 awards and $1 million in combined potential value — the latter driven by two large IDC holdings. The Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region rounds out the customer set with 2 awards worth $25 thousand. The Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management unit and its Interagency Fire Center dominate dollars (83% of combined potential value across the vendor's footprint), while Region 2 dominates order count (58% of awards). High Country Hand Wash LLC holds two IDCs: a $500,000 multiple-award IDC awarded February 6, 2026, through the National Interagency Fire Center running through May 22, 2029, and a $250,000 multiple-award IDC awarded May 22, 2024, also running through May 22, 2029. Under these IDCs, the vendor has generated 7 task orders carrying $141 thousand in combined potential value. Activity has been sporadic — one award in 2021, then a two-year gap, then two awards in 2023, three in 2024, two in 2025, and four in 2026 — with no recompete cliff visible in the next twenty-four months. The vendor operates entirely as a prime contractor; no subcontract footprint is present. All twelve awards carry NAICS 238990 (Support Activities for Forestry) and PSC codes aligned to fire suppression, presuppression, and firefighting equipment.

High Country Hand Wash provides hand wash stations to support forestry services.
