UNSPSC 24100000 Material handling machinery and equipment is a Family code that encompasses forklifts, pallet jacks, reach trucks, material handling trucks, and related warehouse equipment that state and local governments procure for operational facilities, transit authorities, community colleges, and county service centers. Recent solicitations show active procurement of electric and internal combustion forklifts, pallet jacks (electric and manual), reach trucks, and specialized equipment such as evacuator chairs, pallet rack shelving and wire decking, and conveyor system components. State and local issuing bodies include county governments (Hillsborough County, Collin County Community College District), city procurement offices (Superior Court of California County of Los Angeles, City of Milpitas, City of Tucson), state departments (Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries, New Hampshire Department of Administrative Services, State of Connecticut Department of Transportation), and transit authorities (Jacksonville Transportation Authority, Orange County Transportation Authority). The Los Angeles Superior Court and Massachusetts state entities appear multiple times in recent opportunities, suggesting concentrated demand among large public facility operators and infrastructure agencies.
