UNSPSC 11141601: Textile waste or scrap

UNSPSC 11141601 Textile waste or scrap (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code. The five most recent opportunities solicited under 11141601 are for biohazard waste removal and disposal, general refuse and waste management services, hazardous waste removal, and waste carts and bins—none of which involve textile waste or scrap collection, processing, or recovery. The mismatch suggests either tagging error in the state and local procurement databases or that this code has been repurposed to span broader waste-management categories than its name indicates.

Activity under the code shows issuing bodies across multiple jurisdiction types: the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), Harris County Texas, William S. Hart Union High School District (California), Maryland Environmental Service, and Region 14 Education Service Center (Texas) have posted opportunities in the past four months. Geographic spread includes California (Los Angeles, Ventura, and Santa Clarita counties), Texas (Harris County and through OMNIA Partners nationally), and Maryland (Baltimore). Representative recent solicitations include Caltrans IFB 07A6365 for multi-provider biohazard waste removal and disposal in Los Angeles and Ventura Counties (due June 18, 2026), Harris County ITB 260030 for waste management and refuse removal services (due June 15, 2026), William S. Hart Union High School District IFB HAZ2604A for hazardous waste removal across 16 sites in Santa Clarita (due April 29, 2026), Maryland Environmental Service competitive sealed bid 1265265 for hazardous and non-hazardous waste transportation and disposal at two Baltimore facilities (due May 7, 2026), and Region 14 Education Service Center RFP 26-S953 for waste carts, recycling carts, bins, and related products through OMNIA Partners cooperative purchasing (due March 12, 2026). The code shows no recent activity that matches textile waste or scrap as typically understood in procurement taxonomy.
