UNSPSC 24102002: Bin handlers

UNSPSC 24102002 Bin handlers (Commodity) covers storage and containment equipment that state and local governments buy to organize, secure, and protect materials in warehouses, parks, and operational facilities. Recent solicitations show activity focused on industrial shelving units for warehouse and general storage, specialized hazardous-material storage containers, and general supplies for intake sites. Issuing bodies include city procurement departments (Philadelphia, Phoenix), county governments (Gwinnett County, Georgia; Sarasota County, Florida), and typically award through RFQ, IFB, or micro-purchase mechanisms with response windows of two to four weeks. Award criteria emphasize pricing, delivery timelines, vendor qualifications, and compliance with material specifications and local regulations including tax and insurance requirements.

Geographic activity clusters in the Southeast and Southwest, with recent opportunities posted from Georgia, Florida, Pennsylvania, and Arizona. Representative solicitations include Gwinnett County's IWQ 135390 for shelving units (due October 2, 2026), Sarasota County's RFQ for a 20-foot hazardous-material storage container with secondary containment and integrated electrical systems at a $50,000 bid ceiling (due August 7, 2026), the City of Philadelphia's micro-purchase B2727501 for shelving with a $45,000 cap (due July 24, 2026), and the City of Phoenix's IFB 260251 for five-year warehouse shelving supply (due June 1, 2026, extended to October 18, 2022 by addendum). Philadelphia appears as a repeat buyer for storage supplies and general operational equipment. Bidders should expect detailed specification requirements, proof of relevant experience, insurance compliance, and in Philadelphia's case, exposure to Local Business Entity preference scoring and prevailing-wage obligations on larger awards.
