How to bid on Milwaukee warehouse space for the Bureau of Land Management
What the BLM is seeking
The Bureau of Land Management is researching existing warehouse and secured yard space within the area shown on its market survey map in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The requested space includes 5,000–6,000 square feet of warehouse, a fenced yard of 39,000–45,000 square feet, two drive-in doors at least 12 by 12 feet, and six parking spaces.
The proposed lease is 20 years, with a 15-year firm term. This notice is market research and planning, not a formal request for proposals. The BLM will use responses to assess available space and whether it may relocate.
Dates and the response deadline
Expressions of interest are due electronically by October 23, 2026. The notice is published October 20, 2026, and lists a market survey for November 1, 2026. Estimated occupancy is December 1, 2027.
The deadline in the notice is October 23, 2026; submit by that date rather than relying on the November 1 market survey date. The listing’s separate deadline field says November 6, 2026, which conflicts with the full notice. Confirm the applicable deadline with the listed contact.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity may suit owners or authorized representatives of commercial properties with warehouse and secured yard space in the mapped Milwaukee area. The notice identifies the space type as storage and lists transportation as the category.
Properties must be within the mapped boundaries. The notice also says properties in a 100-year floodplain will not be considered. The site and offered space must meet applicable building, fire and life-safety, and environmental requirements; the yard must have suitable fencing, lighting, and gate access control, and the building must be accessible 24/7/365.

Send the expression of interest electronically to Charles Leverett, Senior Real Estate Advisor, at [email protected]. Include reference L26PL00026. The notice lists his phone number as 303 810-4332.
Prepare a complete property response
Include the building name and address; the available warehouse and secured yard square footage; floor plans, site plans, and specifications showing overhead-door dimensions; confirmation of six parking spaces; and evidence that you own the property or are authorized to represent its owner.
Also provide the estimated rental rate per square foot, with a fully serviced or triple-net breakdown, and the authorized contact’s name, address, phone number, and email. Explain clearly how the property fits the requested size and access needs. Since the BLM may consider alteration costs and telecommunications infrastructure, give accurate information about existing conditions and any relevant improvements rather than assuming the property meets every need.
