Perdido Landfill Retaining Wall Installation

Escambia County is soliciting bids for a turnkey construction project to install a sheet pile retaining wall at the Perdido Landfill located at 13009 Beulah Road, Cantonment, Florida. The project involves the demolition and removal of an existing, failing timber wall system, site preparation including stabilization fill and grading, and the installation of a new retaining wall system according to engineered drawings. The contractor is responsible for all labor, materials, and equipment, as well as site restoration involving topsoil and sod. Key site constraints include the need to protect a fire hydrant and high-pressure water line, and the requirement that all construction debris be weighed for landfill reporting. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive bidder on an all-or-none total basis. Work is permitted to start after October 1, 2026, with a requirement for substantial completion within 90 calendar days of the Notice to Proceed and final completion within 120 days. Bidders must provide a bid bond of 5% of the total price and maintain comprehensive insurance, including completed operations coverage. Required submissions include a signed bid form, Florida business authority certification, occupational licenses, and E-Verify registration. All work must be performed during landfill operating hours, and the contractor must adhere to OSHA, ASTM, and Florida state safety and building codes.
