This contract is to rescind the previous award for three (3) dump trucks to Wade Ford, and re-award the contract to National Automotive Fleet Group in the amount of $366,000. The original purchase approved by City Council on December 21, 2021, aimed to procure three (3) dump trucks from Wade Ford. However, due to ordering bank cutoffs and limited vehicle allocations, Wade Ford cannot fulfill the vehicle order. Therefore, staff recommends procuring the vehicles from the National Automotive Fleet Group.

The three (3) dump trucks will serve as a valuable fleet addition for the Sanitation Department to support the newly established Sanitation Litter Crew. This initiative aims to assist the Sanitation Department in meeting the increasing service demands related to emptying litter and recycling baskets, removing loose litter from blocks, and maintaining the clean appearance of the City of Savannah. The acquisition of these dump body trucks will significantly bolster the Sanitation Department's capacity to support the City of Savannah's litter crew initiative.
