UNSPSC 11141607: Rubber waste or scrap

UNSPSC 11141607 Rubber waste or scrap, a Commodity code, encompasses the collection, transportation, and disposal of discarded tires, scrap rubber, and related waste streams generated across state and local operations. State and local governments procuring under this code seek vendors to manage waste tires from maintenance yards, collection sites, and facilities; dispose of scrap rubber and tire-derived materials; and handle contaminated rubber components such as oil filters and hydraulic-fluid-saturated items mixed with hazardous waste streams. The issuing bodies span counties, state transportation departments, school districts, and special-purpose authorities. Marion County Schools in Florida, Pasco County in Florida, and the Illinois Department of Transportation represent active recent buyers; Marion County Schools solicits hazardous waste disposal inclusive of oil filters and contaminated materials, while Pasco County and IDOT focus specifically on waste tire management from county collection and maintenance sites.

Activity concentrates in Florida and Illinois based on recent solicitations. The Illinois Department of Transportation issued an IFB in June 2026 for pickup and disposal of tires and scrap rubber across District 1 covering six counties, requiring a Registered Commercial Used Tire Transporter permit and management of 84 lockable dumpsters across 28 maintenance yards, with the contract term running through June 30, 2029. Pasco County, Florida, posted an IFB-KM-26-097 in May 2026 for as-needed waste tire management from two collection sites, estimating 1,000 tons annually of automobile, truck, farm, and off-road equipment tires, with bids due June 23, 2026 and award going to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder meeting FDEP or EPA facility approval for whole-tire processing. Marion County Schools' ITB 4194MF, posted October 12, 2026 with bids due October 7, 2026, bundles tire and rubber waste (oil filters, hydraulic fluid) within a broader hazardous waste packaging, pickup, and disposal contract term running November 11, 2026 through November 10, 2027 with three optional one-year renewals.
