NIGP 86306: Tires and Tubes, Motorcycle

NIGP 86306 Tires and Tubes, Motorcycle is an Item code under which state and local governments procure tire supply, disposal, and repair services — including new tires across multiple sizes and vehicle classes, scrap tire recycling and disposal, tire repair and retreading, and emergency roadside tire service. Recent solicitations show municipalities and counties buying these services to maintain operational vehicle fleets and manage waste tire streams through environmentally compliant recycling and reuse pathways. Issuing bodies include city public works departments, county transportation and facilities management offices, and regional service cooperatives sourcing on behalf of multiple participating jurisdictions. The scope typically requires vendors to supply tires from multiple manufacturers with varying tread specifications, deliver on scheduled and emergency bases, provide field and on-site repairs, handle complete scrap tire collection and disposal under local and federal environmental rules, and maintain availability beyond standard business hours.

Recent activity spans Florida, Georgia, and a multi-state cooperative purchasing framework anchored in Washington and Minnesota.

The City of Atlanta issued an Invitation for Bid (IFB/GS/DPW/2601-1260107) on April 30, 2026 for tire supply, disposal, and repair services with a May 8, 2026 deadline, requiring vendors to maintain multiple tire brands and tread types, provide scheduled delivery and emergency service availability, and ensure scrap tire disposal compliance.
