NIGP 10040: Pail-Type Containers, Steel

NIGP 10040 Pail-Type Containers, Steel is an Item code covering durable steel containers that state and local governments procure for waste management and solid-waste operations. The City of Leesburg, Florida recently issued IFB26007HG to purchase 32 open-top roll-off metal containers in four sizes (10, 20, 30, and 40 cubic yards) constructed from high carbon H/R steel with continuous welding, 10-gauge sides, 7-gauge flooring, reinforced rear doors, and cable-hoist-compatible rollers. Specifications call for sand blasting or air grinding followed by TECTYL 300 resin undercoat and two coats of Royal BFI Blue high-gloss industrial enamel. Containers under this code serve municipal solid-waste departments managing collection and transport infrastructure; the scope of work involves meeting precise material and fabrication standards rather than commodity purchasing of off-the-shelf bins.

The recent opportunity from Leesburg signals activity among municipal procurement offices managing waste-management fleets in Florida. The contract structure—a one-year initial term with four optional one-year renewals, Net 30 payment terms, and as-needed quantities—is typical for local government fleet procurement. Bidders must demonstrate three years of business operation, E-Verify registration, and $1 million combined single-limit Commercial General Liability and Business Automobile Liability insurance. Specification questions closed January 9, 2026, and bid submission deadline was January 22, 2026, at 11:00 a.m., with award recommendation scheduled for January 30, 2026. No set-aside designations or disadvantaged-enterprise restrictions appear in this solicitation.
