Recommendation

Background
The mobile concrete mixing trailer is designed to be easily towed and transported to different job
sites, allowing flexibility and convenience in delivering concrete where needed. By owning a
mobile concrete mixing trailer, the Public Works Department can save on renting or outsourcing
concrete mixing services, leading to significant cost savings in the long run. The mixing trailer was
designed to provide a complete, compact mixing trailer of 7,000 lbs. to allow it to be towed without
a commercial endorsement. The Public Works Department can produce concrete directly at the
job site with a concrete mixing trailer.
Discussion
The purchase of this mobile concrete mixing trailer provides the Public Works Department with
portability, cost savings, on-site production, control over concrete quality, flexibility, and durability.
These benefits contribute to more efficient and cost-effective concrete mixing operations for the
department’s construction projects.
