Board tables proposed switch from Cintas to Unifirst for uniforms and cleaning services
Summary
Unifirst representative said the county could save about 50% by using Sourcewell contract pricing; the Board tabled any change and county counsel said the existing Cintas contract requires written notice for cancellation.
Rachael Armstrong of Unifirst Sales told commissioners that, because Unifirst participates in a Sourcewell contract, the county could realize savings of roughly 50% on uniform, cleaning and mat services. County District Attorney Brian Hermanson said the county’s current contract with Cintas dates from July 2020 and that written notice would be required to cancel it; he said he would contact Cintas for that purpose.
The Board voted to table approval of switching providers for the Courthouse, Administrative Building and OSU Extension Building, giving the county time to examine contract terms and cancellation requirements.
