Towing and Recovery Services

Won by Coronado Wrecking Company$75kAwarded 9/22/2026Single Award
Contract source

Awarded vendors

  • Coronado Wrecking Company

Description

This contract concerns an urgent, government‑mandated emergency towing and recovery service performed on a burning tractor‑trailer that blocked Interstate 69/Highway 281 near Falfurrias, Texas. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency invoked a sole‑source award under the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO) due to “urgent and compelling circumstances,” selecting Coronado Wrecking Company as the sole vendor. The award relies on price‑history analysis and is anticipated to exceed the $40,000 threshold, though the exact amount is not disclosed. • Scope: Emergency removal of a fire‑engulfed tractor‑trailer obstructing a major highway for >5 hours. • Authority: RFO Subpart 8.4, 12.102(a), 13.101(b), and 16.507‑6 (executive order‑driven FAR deviations). • Vendor: Single‑source award to Coronado Wrecking Company, a local towing and wrecking service. • Funding: Potential contract value ≥ $40 K; price justified via past‑purchase comparison.

Contract value

$75,000

The PDF notes that any order exceeding $40,000 would trigger additional justification, implying the contract is at least that amount. Emergency towing of a large, burning tractor‑trailer typically involves mobilizing a heavy‑duty wrecking truck, crew, equipment, and possibly disposal costs. Comparable municipal emergency towing contracts for similar incidents range from $30,000 to $80,000 depending on duration and equipment used. Given the federal nature, overhead, and rapid response, a reasonable midpoint estimate is roughly $75,000. This estimate assumes a lump‑sum award covering labor, equipment, disposal, and any ancillary costs.
