UNSPSC 10161557 Chestnut tree is a Commodity code representing the procurement of chestnut trees and related tree-supply services by state and local governments. Recent solicitations reveal that state and local buyers use this code for the purchase and installation of containerized or balled-and-burlap tree stock across landscaping, urban greening, environmental restoration, and right-of-way tree planting projects. Buyers under this code include county environmental services departments, city parks and public works agencies, and regional transportation authorities. Work solicited ranges from single-species tree deliveries for specific street or park locations to multi-species native-tree programs supporting urban canopy expansion and climate pollution reduction initiatives. Scope elements commonly include tree procurement to specified grades and sizes, site preparation, planting labor, initial establishment watering, mulching, soil amendment, and post-installation warranty and maintenance periods extending from six months to one year, with warranty typically excluding acts of nature and requiring dead-plant replacement at contractor expense.

Recent activity under the code is concentrated in Florida and in the Mid-Atlantic, with secondary activity in the Pacific Northwest and Great Plains regions.
