UNSPSC 10161559 Cedrela tree is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, covers the procurement and installation of trees and related landscape services rather than cedrela timber or forest products alone. State and local governments soliciting under this code are purchasing tree supply, planting, site preparation, soil amendment, mulching, watering, maintenance, and warranty services across multiple jurisdictions. The issuing bodies include county governments (Hillsborough County in Florida, Harris County in Texas, Dallas County in Texas, DeKalb County in Georgia), cities (Fitchburg in Wisconsin, Arlington in Texas, Palm Beach in Florida), and special-purpose agencies (Maryland Environmental Service). Landscape contractors and tree suppliers are the primary vendors, with contracts requiring comprehensive general liability insurance, performance bonds, plant guarantees ranging from one to two years, and documented experience in municipal or commercial tree installation projects.
