Railroad Tie Disposal Services

The Alaska Railroad Corporation is seeking a vendor to provide railroad tie disposal, processing, recycling, or reuse services within the state of Alaska. The agency needs to manage the disposal of approximately 45,000 used railroad ties per year, which are treated with creosote and may contain attached steel hardware. These ties vary in dimension and include standard cross ties as well as longer switch and bridge ties. The agency requires the selected contractor to perform all disposal work onsite in Anchorage, Alaska. Bidders must be organizations based onshore within the United States to be eligible for this contract. The agency is establishing a contract period of two years for these services. The agency is currently looking for proposals to determine the budget and cost structure for this project. No specific evaluation criteria or key dates are provided in the solicitation details. Bidders must submit proposals that address the in-state processing and disposal requirements for the specified volume of creosote-treated ties.
