Government contracts for trucking & hauling in Maine

Trucking & hauling contracts in Maine typically cover dump-truck and aggregate hauling for road and public-works projects, equipment and heavy-machinery transport, freight deliveries between agency facilities, courier and box-truck delivery routes, and on-call hourly hauling IDIQs. Federal posts in this category fall under NAICS 484220 (Specialized Freight Trucking, Local), with related work under 484110 (General Freight Trucking, Local) and 492110 (Couriers and Express Delivery Services), and the bulk of the work flows to DoD installations, the U.S. Postal Service, GSA logistics offices, and state Departments of Transportation. Hauling and freight work is heavily small-business set-aside, and many state DOT hauling solicitations are reserved for DBE-certified or locally based operators, keeping single-truck and small-fleet owner-operators competitive.

Maine currently has 2 open trucking & hauling contracts in our database, with 2 added in the last 30 days. Volume in smaller markets is lumpy: a single base or facility can drive a quarter of annual postings. The most active buyers are CHARLESTON CORRECTIONAL FAC (1 open posts) and DEFENSE VETERANS & EMERG MGMT (1), with the rest spread across other federal civilian agencies, DoD components, and state and local departments active in Maine.

Beyond federal opportunities, much of the trucking & hauling work in Maine is posted through the Maine Division of Procurement Services bid portal, with recurring buyers including the Maine Department of Transportation and the University of Maine System. Maine's Resident Vendor Preference gives in-state bidders a slight scoring boost on contested awards. ContractRadar pulls federal postings from SAM.gov alongside state and local feeds so a trucking and hauling contractor doesn't have to monitor each portal manually.
