27-04 Leachate Hauling

The Houston County Board of Commissioners is soliciting sealed bids for the transportation and hauling of leachate from the Houston County Solid Waste Disposal Facility. The selected contractor will be solely responsible for the loading, hauling, and safe offloading of all leachate. Primary delivery is to the City of Warner Robins Sewage Treatment Plant, with the City of Montezuma Sewage Treatment Plant serving as an alternate location as directed by the county. The contractor must manage all necessary handling procedures and comply with all manifest, reporting, and documentation requirements established by Houston County and the receiving facilities. Bidders must provide pricing on a per-tanker load basis, and invoicing will be processed based on the number of loads hauled rather than by the gallon. Required submission documents include a bid bond for five percent of the total bid amount or an acceptable letter of credit, a completed E-Verify affidavit with the E-Verify number clearly marked on the outside of the sealed bid envelope, and evidence of general liability insurance of at least $1,000,000, including workers' compensation and automobile liability coverage. The response deadline for this solicitation is December 17, 2026.
