NIGP 86395: Recycled Tires and Tubes

NIGP 86395 Recycled Tires and Tubes, an Item code, encompasses tire supply, maintenance, repair, and disposal services that state and local governments procure for fleet operations, solid waste management, and facility maintenance. Recent solicitations show demand across three distinct service streams: tire supply and repair (new, retread, and specialty tires with on-site and roadside service), tire disposal and waste management (collection, transportation, and processing of scrap tires from landfills and collection sites), and integrated MRO tire components within broader fleet maintenance contracts. The issuing bodies include city departments (Atlanta, Milpitas, Altamonte Springs), county governments (Pinal, Jackson, Marion, Pasco, Collier), school districts (Sarasota County Schools), and Sourcewell, a Minnesota-based cooperative purchasing vehicle representing multi-state and multi-sector participation. Work types range from small targeted procurements—Pinal County seeking retread tires for Public Works, or Sarasota County Schools establishing hourly pricing for roadside repair—to large multi-year blanket purchase orders such as Milpitas's five-year MRO contract spanning fleet, facilities, and parks maintenance.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and California, with secondary presence in Missouri, Arizona, and Minnesota-Washington cooperative jurisdictions. Marion County Solid Waste (Florida) issued an ITB for waste tire transport and disposal with intent to award a minimum of two vendors on a two-year contract with three annual renewal options, due July 9, 2026; Pasco County (Florida) solicited waste tire pickup and disposal from collection sites at approximately 1,000 tons annually via IFB-KM-26-097, with proposals due June 23, 2026, requiring FDEP- or EPA-approved processing for end uses including tire-derived fuel, crumb rubber, and civil engineering applications. Collier County (Florida) issued an ITB for fleet tires and services with historical spending around $400,000 annually, grant-funded through FTA and requiring DBE compliance, due March 17, 2026. Jackson County, Missouri seeks off-road, agricultural, industrial, and specialty tires with maintenance and repair services across county departments on a twenty-four-month term with one twelve-month option, due August 18, 2026. The City of Atlanta's IFB for comprehensive tires, disposal, and repair services covers all vehicle classes with emergency availability required; the City of Milpitas's IFB 26-229 includes fleet tires within five supply categories on a five-year blanket purchase order basis with local preference, due August 4, 2026.
