Verified porter services vendors propose on your work

On VendoRFP, verified vendors propose on clubhouse cleaning, trash and common-area pickup, restroom detailing, and light upkeep across the shared amenities, and sweep up pollen and storm litter through the spring. You pick who gets the Arlington contract.

  1. You invite the vendors you already use

    Invite the porter services vendor your community already uses. They enroll, their insurance is verified, and they can propose on your work anywhere in the US. Any verified vendor that serves your area can propose too.

  2. Visits and invoices land in one dashboard

    Every visit, proof photo, service record, and invoice for your Arlington community lands in one dashboard, where your board can open any of them without asking anyone for a copy.

  3. You pick who you sign with

    Vendors send proposals. Your management team reads each proposal alongside the vendor that sent it, can put them to a recorded board vote, and signs with the one it picked. If you want a different vendor a year from now, you run the same steps again.

The porters on the morning loop work for the vendor your community signs.

Credentials are held to the date on them

VendoRFP verifies every vendor’s insurance and trade credentials before that vendor can propose, and tracks the expiration dates from then on.

A lapseIf a policy lapses, the vendor can’t propose on your work from the day after its expiration date, and you can’t send them out or put them on the schedule until it is back in force.
CertificationsTrade certifications follow the same rule — a vendor has to hold a current one the day it proposes.
