City of Nashua, Public Works Division
Board of Public Works Meeting Date: January 30, 2020
Nicholas Caggiano - Superintendent
Parks and Recreation Department
Contract for Portable Restroom Rental and Service.
To approve the purchase of Rest Room Services with United Site Services of
Haverhill MA for the 2020, 2021, 2023 portable restroom contract for the annual
sum of $32,140.00. Funding for the contract will be through Department: 177
Park & Recreation; Fund: General and Trusts; Account Classification: 54
Property Services.
Quote from United Site Services.
This purchase will continue to provide portable restroom services at a rate of
$119.00 per month and ADA units at $169.00 per month. The contract was
advertised through the Purchasing Department. The bid was sent to 7 vendors and
was advertised through the Bid Express System. One bid was received. The bid
came in much higher than anticipated. We met with the vendor and negotiated the
rate down and they have agreed to hold these rates through 2023. This rate is
lower than the current NH state Bid.
Currently we seasonally provide 32 units at various parks and playgrounds
through out the city. The units are serviced 2 times per week. The majority of the
units are in place from Mid-April through Early November. The Superintendent
and Purchasing Manager recommends awarding the purchase to United Site
Services.
