Description:
The Town of Dewey Beach is soliciting bids for a two (2)-year contract for cleaning services for the Town's new municipal complex, including Town Hall and the Police Department, as well as the Town's Life Saving Station.
The cleaning services contract shall be under the supervision of the Town Manager or his/her designee.
The new municipal complex will include Town Hall, the Police Department, Commissioner Meeting Room, Alderman Court, offices, conference and training rooms, and other public and administrative spaces. The building is scheduled to open for business in mid-September 2026. The construction contractor is expected to turn the building over to the Town in a clean and inspected condition. The successful cleaning services contractor will be responsible for maintaining the building in a clean, sanitary, orderly,
and professional condition throughout the term of the contract. The successful bidder shall pay careful attention to detail and shall respect the offices, equipment, records, and other property of the Town of Dewey Beach.
