Hmm, someone must have taken information from one vendor and then designed bid requirements with the intention of awarding that contract to that Vendor only…EPIC proportions of bid rigging, call the police, prosecutors, legislative bodies, call for help cause this is going to cost you booku bucks.
Why would we care if a truck is more than 5 years old ?!!! If the vendor keeps their trucks in perfect working condition, who cares how old they are ?!
It would mean you have to drag the container to the curb and back each time even if you only have a small bag of trash.
And doesn’t switching to this method usually mean one collection per week?
Good catch Common Sense!! Sounds to me like the sanitation company has already been chosen and requires a specific size container to pair with the lifting mechanism on the garbage truck. Sounds like a big non essential investment. Take a closer look at the contract and ask Why wouldn’t the business administrator negotiate a contract that would have the Sanitation company include Residential Trash Containers as part of their service? Your right! It does stink
I can see it now “due to mismanaged bid selection there will be NO garbage pick up in Belbar on one way streets from April 15th through October 15th. ONLY authorized, automatated garbage pick up locations will have refuse collection one day a week.
Recently, TREE is a 4 letter word in Belmar …. other towns with nice street tree canopies found the trucks destructive …. along with a bunch of other problems like parking and one-way.
Don’t worry! Belmar already has a GARBAGE ORDINANCE that would require a public hearing to modify …. Everyone can tell the wizard what to do with their garbage.

Perfect sign for a garbage truck.
Do you know what an elephant is?
A mouse built to Belmar Specs!
Hopeless
That sign on a truck of a borough vendor kinda sums it up.
Send the sign to the dump please.

Did I read that right?
We all get a new container that the truck will pick up automatically and empty?
It’s one possibility

I dont want that, I like it just the way it is.We use our own cans and bags.
#9 …all vehicles, what i care about the maintenance pickup truck at the vender yard…..just tells me high costs due to all vehicles are new

I’m with you #10.

Vote for an honest councilman, Vote Josh.
I’m with #9. Who the heck cares how old the trucks are ! Only means this is gonna cost the taxpayers dearly. Looks like the fix is in.
Sounds like wall tow sip did a few years ago
You will be paying for the prequalified, preselected successful vendor’s fleet with a long term contract boys and girls.
Follow the PAY2PLAY donations of Republic…. like fund raisers hosted by hizzhonor, the drunken, pugilistic mcdirty of Belmar
#7 and Admin-
How will this work when, for the most part, there are cars parked on both sides of the street everyday all day?
Would have been nice if they had asked us about it first.

The auto mechanism won’t work in Belmar. Too many parked cars and one way streets.
Bradley Beach back to the old school way and do it themselves . Saving huge money $$$ Bradley might even be bigger than Belmar

Isn’t there an interlocal agreement between Bradley and Avon for DPW services?
They shared a truck for the first few months , then Bradley bought one used truck from Avon and also added new one.
