NIGP 45017: Cans, Safety: Gasoline, Kerosene, Oil, etc.

NIGP 45017 Cans, Safety: Gasoline, Kerosene, Oil, Etc., an Item code, encompasses safety containment and storage cans that state and local governments procure for fire rescue operations, hazmat response, and general operational safety. Recent solicitations show that jurisdictions are buying these cans primarily as part of broader janitorial, operational supplies, and safety equipment packages ordered on an as-needed basis for fire departments, municipal operations, and public safety facilities. The issuing bodies range from county governments and municipalities to school districts and cooperative purchasing consortia, with county fire rescue departments and public safety operations emerging as primary end users. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida, for example, solicited consumable janitorial and operational supplies—which include safety cans—for 47 fire stations operating continuously; the School Board of Marion County, Florida sought janitorial and sanitary supplies that encompass miscellaneous operational items; and the Town of Palm Beach, Florida issued a general safety items and accessories bid that covers this commodity class.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida, with secondary participation from Washington state and Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicles. Hillsborough County issued ITB2600319 for janitorial and operational supplies with a contract value of $765,679.84 and a response deadline of July 24, 2026, requiring delivery within 10 days of purchase order receipt to 47 fire stations in the Tampa area. Marion County Schools released a ten-month term contract (4152AM) due January 14, 2026 for janitorial and sanitary paper supplies and miscellaneous items to the District's Central Warehouse. The Town of Palm Beach posted RFB RFBNO2026032 for safety items and accessories due May 4, 2026, with one-year pricing valid on an as-needed basis and F.O.B. destination to West Palm Beach. Sourcewell, operating as a Minnesota local government unit, issued RFP #061626 for law enforcement equipment on behalf of multiple Washington counties and participating entities nationwide, with proposals due June 16, 2026. These solicitations indicate steady demand for safety cans as part of larger consumables contracts, with award structures typically allowing item-by-item or section-based allocation and no guaranteed minimum purchase quantities.
