County awards roll‑off dumpster contracts to local haulers for two years
Summary
Park County awarded two‑year roll‑off service contracts: 2 Tough Guys will serve the Park County Regional Landfill schedule A and Keel Sanitation will cover Powell, Clark and Crandall locations; awards are conditioned on county attorney approval and chair signature.
Park County commissioners voted Dec. 16 to award two‑year contracts for roll‑off dumpster services to local haulers after staff reviewed sealed bids from two local firms.
Solid Waste Manager and county engineer read bid schedules for multiple sites: container rental fees, standard contract dumping fees and on‑call trip rates. Staff noted that only two local firms bid (2 Tough Guys and Keel Sanitation). Based on historical dump frequency and per‑site needs, commissioners and staff discussed whether to split award by location. Staff recommended awarding the Park County Regional Landfill (Schedule A) to 2 Tough Guys and Powell, Clark and Crandall schedules to Keel Sanitation. The board approved the recommendation and authorized the chair to sign contracts subject to county‑attorney as‑to‑form review.
Why it mattered: commissioners emphasized local competition and predictable on‑call costs; staff said on‑call trips are typically infrequent (1–2 per month) except during heavy construction months. The two‑contract approach allows tailored service levels across facilities and keeps most work with local haulers.
