City of Waynesboro

Request for Proposals and Invitation to Bid

For Cardboard Truck Services

The City of Waynesboro, Mississippi, will receive sealed written

Proposals for the Collection and Bailing of Cardboard generated from

within the city. Proposals will be received at Waynesboro City Hall,

City Clerk's Office, 714 Wayne Street, Waynesboro, Mississippi until

May 6, 2024 at 10:00 a.m., C.S.T, at which time all proposals will be

publicly opened and read aloud. The envelopes containing the Proposals

must be sealed and addressed to City Clerk, City of Waynesboro, 714

Wayne Street, Waynesboro, Mississippi 39367.

All Proposals shall give the amount of each bid for the service to be

performed and must be signed by the Bidder. Each Proposal must be

submitted in a sealed envelope bearing on the outside the name of the

Bidder, its address, and plainly mark "Proposal for Cardboard

Collection and Bailing Services". If forwarding by mail, the sealed

envelope containing the Proposal must be enclosed in another envelope

addressed as specified in the Proposal. The City may consider as

irregular any Proposal not prepared and submitted in accordance with the

provisions hereof and may waive any informalities or reject any and all

Proposals. Any Proposal may be withdrawn prior to the above scheduled

time for the opening of Proposals. Any Proposal received after the time

and date specified above will not be considered.

A Proposal shall be deemed as having been awarded when formal notice of

award shall have been mailed by the City to the Bidder. The Bidder to

whom the Contract shall have been awarded will be required to execute 3

copies of a Contract furnished by the City. In case of the Bidder's

refusal or failure to do so within ten (10) days after its receipt of

formal notice of award. Bidder will be considered to have abandoned all

rights and interests in the award and the work readvertised for

Proposals as the City may elect.

Scope: The scope of the work, insurance requirements, indemnification,

and other provisions under the proposed Contract shall consist of all

items contained in a document styled "General Contract

Specifications" which may be inspected or obtained at the City

Clerk's Office, 714 Wayne Street, Waynesboro, Mississippi. The Bidder

selected shall be the sole cardboard collector for the City, with the

exception of any other government or quasi-governmental operations

located in the city limits of Waynesboro. All cardboard shall be hauled

to bailer and bailed, and ready for recycle pick-up as needed each

month. Collection fees for services will continue to be billed through

the City of Waynesboro Water Department to business and industry

participating in cardboard pick-up.

The opening and reading of a Proposal shall not be construed as an

acceptance of the Bidder as a qualified, responsible Bidder. The City

reserves the right to determine the competence and responsibility of a

Bidder from its knowledge of the Bidder's qualifications or from other

sources.

The city reserves the right to examine all Bidder's equipment in

determining if the Bidder has the necessary equipment to be a qualified

responsible Bidder. All proposals for cardboard collection and bailing

services are solicited on the basis of rates of each type of service.

The estimated number of customers to be served under this Contract is 40

commercial customers, and occasional add-ons of one-time pick-ups by

residential or commercial customers as service is required. These

figures are given for the use of Bidders, and the city assumes no

responsibility for their accuracy. Both the contractor and the City

shall have the right to verify any customer count that does not appear

to coincide with actual number of customers being serviced.

Explanations desired by a prospective Bidder shall be requested of the

City Clerk in writing, and if explanations are necessary, a reply shall

be made in the form of an Addendum, a copy of which will be forwarded to

each known Bidder.

The City reserves the right to accept any Proposal or to reject any or

all Proposals, and to waive defects or irregularities in any Proposal.

In particular, any alteration, erasure or interlineations of the

Proposal may render the Proposal irregular and subject to possible

rejection by the city.

This the 11th day of April, 2024.
