The City of Kent, Washington ("City") is seeking proposals for on-call services related to clean-up and disposal of general garbage and other waste related to illegal dumping and/or homeless encampments at various City-owned properties. Proposals are sought for on-call services to clean up and dispose of general garbage and other waste related to illegal dumping and/or homeless encampments at various city-owned properties through December 2025. Site conditions: Site conditions vary at each location. Some sites may contain steep slopes and sensitive areas. Each site may contain a variety of garbage and discarded items associated with homeless occupancy and encampment and/or illegal dumping. These items may contain hazardous materials including bio-hazards, used needles, human waste, garbage, general debris, constructed temporary structures, shopping carts, tents, tires, wooden pallets, and a wide variety of other items. Site Access: Access to each site will vary. Some sites have formal parking lots and trail access. Other sites will be less developed and more difficult to access. Clean-Up Approach: Within two business days of being contacted by City staff, the selected contractor shall meet with City staff at the identified site. City staff and contractor will jointly review the site conditions, volume of garbage, site access, limits, clean-up standards, potential requirements (traffic control, loading zone, etc.) and number of employees and days needed for clean-up. Contractor will provide the City with a written estimate within two business days after the joint site visit. The written estimate will include a per day (8-hour business day) cost for clean-up at the site(s) and an expected duration for completion. The contractor shall not exceed the amount in the written estimate without written approval from the City. After the City agrees to the written estimate, Contractor will have five business days to commence clean-up work. Since each site will vary in size, contractor will need to be able to provide sufficient staff to scale up or down based on the volume of removal and sitespecific set up requirements at any one location. All collected trash and debris shall be disposed of at a King County transfer station. Owner Rights: The City reserves the right at its sole discretion to reject any or all proposals that the City receives without penalty, and to waive irregularities and informalities with respect to any proposal.
