How to bid on citywide moving services for NYC DCAS

What NYC DCAS is buying

The New York City Department of Citywide Administrative Services is seeking qualified contractors to provide moving services citywide on behalf of the City of New York. The solicitation is an invitation for bids (IFB) in the transportation category.

This may suit firms that provide moving services and can respond to a citywide government solicitation.

Deadline and bid opening

Submit your bid by November 19, 2026, at 2:00 PM Eastern Time. The bid opening will be held virtually; its registration link is in the PASSPort RFx.

The deadline is the time to have your response submitted, not just started. Avoid waiting until the last minute, especially if you need help with PASSPort.

Who this opportunity suits

This opportunity is for qualified contractors able to provide moving services across New York City. Moving-service firms in the transportation category should review the solicitation documents to decide whether the work fits their capabilities.

Find the solicitation and submit in PASSPort

Use the “View original source” option to open NYC’s Current Solicitations open-data list, which can be read without logging in. Find the solicitation by its PIN or title. NYC posts bids to City Record and PASSPort; search the PIN on City Record Online to view documents, or register a free vendor account in PASSPort to respond.

In PASSPort, acknowledge receipt of the RFx in the Acknowledgement tab and complete your response in the Manage Responses tab. Vendor resources are available under the “Finding and Responding to RFx” heading. For PASSPort help, consult the MOCS FAQ and help resources. If you have technical difficulties, contact the MOCS service desk.

Prepare a complete, competitive bid

Read the RFx and all available documents carefully. Make a checklist of each requested response item and confirm that your bid addresses the stated requirements rather than relying on assumptions.

Allow time to enter and review your response in PASSPort. Check that you have completed both the Acknowledgement and Manage Responses steps, and confirm your submission before the deadline. Review the virtual bid-opening information in the RFx if you plan to attend.
