Consideration of the purchase of three (3) work ready diesel powered side loaders for the Solid Waste Division of Infrastructure.

Summary:

In late 2023, the City ordered five (5) Labrie compressed natural gas powered (CNG) side loaders, expecting the units to be delivered in 2024.  Currently, only two units have arrived, with the final three (3) units being delayed by the manufacturer until mid to late summer 2025.  It is costing the City a significant amount of money to maintain the older trucks and keep them in service

 

Elliott Equipment Co. has provided a quote through Sourcewell, a cooperative purchasing organization, for three (3) New Way Sidewinder diesel powered work-ready side loaders for the Solid Waste Division, which ensures the reliable waste removal service that our residents have come to expect.  These units will be sold upon delivery of the delayed CNG trucks.

 

Staff recommends the purchase of three (3) diesel powered, work ready side loaders from Elliott Equipment Co.
