UNSPSC 24101615: Loading ramps

UNSPSC 24101615 Loading ramps, a Commodity-tier code, encompasses portable material handling and lifting equipment that state and local governments acquire to support fleet maintenance, construction operations, transit asset servicing, and warehouse logistics. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing portable vehicle lifts, aerial lift inspection services, construction and maintenance equipment bundles, and warehouse material handling systems — a scope that extends well beyond fixed ramps into mobile and repositionable lifting platforms essential to heavy equipment management and facility operations. Issuing bodies include educational service districts, municipal fleet management departments, transit authorities, county courts, and local government service branches. The code draws solicitations from buyers managing transit fleet maintenance, public works equipment, construction support, and administrative facility operations across multiple departments and geographies.

Recent activity spans Texas, Florida, North Carolina, and California. Educational Service District 564 in Texas issued an Invitation to Bid (CM0227) for portable construction and maintenance equipment with bids due November 19, 2026. The City of Ocala, Florida, issued ITB FLT/260478 for annual testing and inspection services on 88 pieces of aerial lift equipment (35 bucket trucks, 10 digger derricks, 2 construction cranes, and 16 utility body cranes) located at its Fleet Management facility in Marion County, with a two-year initial contract term. Charlotte Area Transit System's Bus Operations Division in North Carolina solicited preventative maintenance and repair services for approximately 32 portable vehicle lifts (Stertil Koni units) across two facilities in Mecklenburg County and Charlotte, with proposals due July 8, 2026. The Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, issued IFB 2026049 for warehouse material handling equipment — one electric reach truck, one sit-down forklift, and two electric pallet jacks — with delivery by September 30, 2026, and a DVBE preference offering a 3% bid reduction not to exceed $5,000.
