Statewide Tow, Recovery, Roadside Assistance, and Hazardous Materials (HAZMAT) Services RFI

The Massachusetts Environmental Police, under the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs, has issued Request for Information BD-27-1042-ENV-ENV01-134180 to gather market research for future statewide towing, recovery, roadside assistance, and hazardous materials (HAZMAT) services. This RFI seeks to identify qualified vendors capable of providing 24/7/365 support for a wide array of vehicles and equipment, including passenger cars, commercial trucks, boats, and specialized law enforcement gear. The scope of work includes vehicle extrication from difficult environments like beaches and wooded areas, roadside services such as jump starts and tire replacement, HAZMAT containment and cleanup, and vehicle relocation between state facilities. Key operational requirements include a target response time of 30 minutes and comprehensive geographic coverage across the Commonwealth, with explicit requirements for service on Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket, as well as the capability for out-of-state towing during official deployments. Interested respondents must provide a cover letter, detailed capability documentation, evidence of public safety contracts from the last five years, and their pricing methodology. This procurement is eligible for the Small Business Purchasing Program. Responses are due by October 30, 2026, and will be used to inform the development of a future Request for Responses or Request for Quotes.
