UNSPSC 11141605: Glass waste or scrap

UNSPSC 11141605 Glass waste or scrap (Commodity) captures waste removal and disposal services, yet the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code involve hazardous waste, biohazard waste, recycling program support, waste carts and containers, and scrap metal recovery—none of which directly address glass waste management. The code shows minimal relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. State and local governments do procure glass waste and scrap materials, but the posted solicitations under 11141605 reflect broader solid waste, hazardous materials handling, and equipment procurement instead.

The issuing bodies active under this code include state departments (California Department of Transportation), school districts (William S. Hart Union High School District), state environmental services (Maryland Environmental Service), and city procurement offices (City of Detroit). Geographic activity spans California, Maryland, and Michigan, with posts dated from January through June 2026. Representative opportunities include Caltrans' IFB for biohazard waste removal and disposal services in Los Angeles and Ventura Counties (due June 18, 2026), the William S. Hart Union High School District's IFB for hazardous waste removal services covering 16 school and maintenance sites (due April 29, 2026), and the Maryland Environmental Service's solicitation for hazardous and non-hazardous waste transportation and disposal at Hawkins Point Landfill and Dundalk Marine Terminal (due May 7, 2026). Given the mismatch between the code's defined scope and the work actually being solicited, this code appears poorly mapped in current state and local procurement systems and warrants careful verification before pursuing opportunities tagged to it.
