NIGP 98380: Treated and Dry Sweeping and Dust Cloth Rental or Lease

NIGP 98380 Treated and Dry Sweeping and Dust Cloth Rental or Lease, an Item code, covers the rental, laundering, and delivery of dust mops, treated dust cloths, and related sweeping supplies to state and local facilities. State and local governments procure this service to maintain building interiors and grounds without owning the equipment outright; vendors typically handle weekly or scheduled pickup, cleaning, and redelivery cycles. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code include higher-education institutions, cooperative purchasing consortiums serving multiple school districts and local agencies, and facilities departments within public-sector organizations.

Geographic activity centers on Texas, where recent solicitations include the University of Houston's RFP 730UOFH3128 for dust mop rental and laundry services (due July 16, 2026) and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's catalog discount bid for custodial supplies, which encompasses treated dust cloths and related equipment (due May 26, 2026, with a two-year contract term running through June 18, 2028, and an estimated total expenditure of $12,638,478.00). The Region 7 cooperative structure serves multiple member organizations across its jurisdiction, signaling that vendors can reach substantial volumes through a single award.
