Guymon Seeks Bids for 2026 Trash, Weed and Grass Removal

The City of Guymon posted a public notice on December 30, 2025, inviting sealed bids for removal of trash and mowing and cutting of weeds and grass, and cleaning of abatement properties for the fiscal year 2026. Bidders must submit sealed proposals to the City Clerk, with formal opening scheduled for January 9, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. in the Municipal Building in Guymon.

Under the notice, contracted work must begin no later than February 10, 2026, and be completed by December 31, 2026. The scope explicitly covers trash removal and vegetation control tied to abatement properties, indicating the city intends to use contracted services to address neglected or noncompliant properties as part of its code enforcement and public maintenance efforts. Further bid information and documents are available from the City Clerk, City of Guymon, Oklahoma; the notice is posted online at guymonok.org/article/2592004. The City Clerk listed on the notice is Lavoana Martinez.

For local contractors, the notice represents an immediate business opportunity that requires fast turnaround to obtain documents, prepare bids, and meet the sealed-submission requirement. For residents, the contracted work signals a municipal push to address overgrown lots and trash that can contribute to fire risk, pest habitat, and lower neighborhood property values. The timeline means residents can expect stepped-up abatement activity starting in mid-February and continuing through the end of the year.

Sealed-bid processes are typical municipal procurement practice designed to promote fairness and transparency while giving the city options to work with commercial vendors for labor-intensive maintenance tasks. Local firms that provide landscaping, mowing, debris hauling, and property-cleaning services may be particularly positioned to respond, but bids must follow the city’s submission and opening procedures.

Property owners in Texas County should be aware that abatement work often follows local ordinances and can lead to city-performed cleanup charged to the property if owners do not comply. Residents seeking more information or interested bidders should contact the City Clerk’s office in Guymon or visit the city’s website at the address above for bid documents and submission details.
