NIGP 64043: Packing Materials for Mailing and Shipping (Not Containers)

NIGP 64043 Packing Materials For Mailing And Shipping (Not Containers), an Item code, covers adhesives, tape, cushioning materials, void fill, mailers, and related consumables that state and local governments use to prepare items for distribution and storage without purchasing permanent shipping containers themselves. State and local buyers procure these materials for routine warehouse operations, mail fulfillment, records management, and equipment redistribution across departments and sites. The issuing bodies under this code span school districts, city and county purchasing offices, and state departments with distributed warehouse operations; activity remains episodic rather than concentrated among a single class of jurisdiction.

Northside Independent School District issued RFP2026094 on June 17, 2026, soliciting sealed bids for miscellaneous warehouse supplies with delivery to San Antonio, Texas, with a response date of July 9, 2026. The District required bidders to include shipping and handling costs in proposals. No other recent state or local opportunities appear in the available record for this code, and geographic spread across multiple states or regions cannot be established from a single solicitation. The sparse recent activity suggests the code sees infrequent, low-profile procurement cycles relative to other commodity and service lines in state and local purchasing.
