Towing Services for the 2026 NYS Fair

The NYS Department of Agriculture and Markets intends to procure providing Towing Services pursuant to its discretionary authority under State Finance Law Section 163 (6), which authorizes purchases without a formal competitive process in certain circumstances, including purchases from New York State small businesses, from businesses certified pursuant to Article 15-A of the New York State Executive Law and, if applicable, from businesses selling commodities or technology that are recycled or remanufactured. Interested parties should contact the department to discuss this opportunity. All necessary quote documents have been attached to this posting.

The New York State Fair is looking for services for both its own needs and to be considered on a preferred towing company list that will be used during the 2026 Fair for patron vehicle issues.

We are requesting towing services for:

Towing of vehicles for the NYS Fair Department Needs for both Pre-Fair and Fairtime for the period of 8/24/26 – 9/7/26

Preferred Towing Vendor During the 2026 New York State Fair (8/26/26 – 9/7/26) up to 3 companies will be chosen to provide these services.

Communication with respect to this procurement initiated by or on behalf of an interested vendor through other than the “Designated Contact Person(s)” identified below may constitute an “impermissible contact” under state law with respect to Procurement Lobbying and could result in disqualification of that vendor.
