NORTHKEEP BIDS

Every Maine town job worth bidding on, in one Monday email.

Maine's towns and counties each post their own bids. We read them every week and send you the ones that fit your trade: plowing, paving, roofing, mowing, building work, engineering, legal and audit services and more.

Free

$0

The 5 biggest new Maine town bids each Monday. Title, town and due date.

Bids Pro

$15/month or $149/year

Every new bid in your trades and counties, a plain-English summary of each, due-date reminders 3 days before, and our weekly list of awards (who won what, when towns publish it).

For comparison, statewide bid services commonly charge about $599 a year for one state, and national bid search tools about $50 a month. Free sources like the Maine Municipal Association's bid board are a great start; we add the towns that post only on their own sites, sort by trade, and explain each job in plain English.
