The Government of the Virgin Islands is inviting bidders to tender for a one-year contract to provide cleaning services for a public restroom facility on Tortola, with all tenders due no later than 4:00 p.m. on 15 May 2026, the government notice says. The contract requires the successful tenderer to open the facility daily at 7:00 a.m. and close it at 7:00 p.m., including weekends and public holidays.

Tender documents specify that contractors must supply all cleaning tools and professional-grade cleaning agents necessary to maintain the facility to a high standard, naming examples such as brooms, mops, buckets, brushes and dust pans, according to the Government of the Virgin Islands release.

Prospective tenderers must submit a quotation, full contact details (address, email and phone number) and supporting certificates of good standing from the Inland Revenue Department, Social Security Board, National Health Insurance and the Company Registry if incorporated. Bidders must also provide a valid 2026 Trade Licence for cleaning/maintenance services and a list of previous jobs of a similar nature.

The government notice warns that failure to enclose the required supporting documentation will render a tender non-responsive on the closing date. All tenders may be hand-delivered to the Ministry of Environment, Natural Resources and Climate Change at #44 Pusser’s Building, Lower Estate, Road Town, Tortola, or sent via e-mail in a non-editable format to the Permanent Secretary at the address listed in the notice (menrcc&gov.vg, as shown in the release).

The filename and e-mail subject must bear the applicant’s name and the title “CLEANING SERVICES FOR RESTROOM FACILITY AT BREWERS BAY, TORTOLA.” Late submissions will not be accepted, and the Government of the Virgin Islands does not bind itself to accept the lowest or any tender. Applicants should note a discrepancy in the government release: the tender title references Brewers Bay but the body of the notice names Cane Garden Bay as the site of the restroom facility.

Interested parties are advised to confirm the exact facility location and all submission details with the Department of Information and Public Relations before applying. For clarification and additional information contact the Department at bmckelly@gov.vg, as listed in the notice.

A subsequent government release repeated the tender details and added further contact channels and media information: international media enquiries may be directed to BVIGovernment@dgagroup.com, and general government service inquiries can be made by phone at 1 (284) 468-3701 or via WhatsApp at 1 (284) 468-9760.

The release also references a government office at 33 Admin Drive, Wickhams Cay 1, Tortola, and promotes a virtual booking system for broader government services. For BVI residents and local small businesses, this tender is an opportunity to secure steady, local work maintaining a public amenity that serves residents and visitors alike.

Clean, well-managed restroom facilities support public health and the territory’s tourism appeal; businesses considering a bid should ensure licensing and statutory requirements are up to date and that their submission packages are complete to avoid disqualification.
