Open cleaning bids in NY, NJ, and PA — in one weekly list.

Short FAQ
Who is this for?
Small and mid-size cleaning and facility contractors who already do, or want to do, public work in New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.
Do you bid for me or get me the contract?
No. BidDrop is a bid-alert list. We help you find the notice. You pull the packet, walk the site if required, and submit your own bid to the agency.
Where do the bids come from?
Public sources such as the NYC City Record, the New York State Contract Reporter, county and city bid boards, and other official purchasing sites in the three states. Each listing links back to the page we used.
What's the difference between weekly and daily?
The free weekly email is a roundup. The paid daily edition is $19 a month, or $190 a year, and is sent when we see new or updated bids, so you are not waiting until the next weekly issue.
Can I cancel the paid plan?
Yes. The daily edition will be month to month if you pay monthly. The annual plan is $190 for the year. Cancellation details will be on the payment page once checkout is live.
Why isn't every public bid in the region on the list?
Some portals need a vendor login, block automated reads, or hide details behind a packet download. If we cannot open a live official page and confirm the basics, we do not list the bid.
