UNSPSC 24102108: Packaging compactors

UNSPSC 24102108 Packaging compactors is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitation activity, does not align with what is actually being procured under this classification. The Orange County Transportation Authority's August 2026 RFQ for removal and recycling/disposal of hazardous waste, oils, and fluids—the sole recent opportunity tagged to this code—concerns hazardous waste transportation, treatment, and disposal services, not packaging compactors or waste-compaction equipment. The scope spans collection, transport, recycling, and proper disposal of used oils, antifreeze, filters, brake fluid, aerosol cans, and medical waste across five OCTA maintenance facilities, with strict regulatory compliance including DTSC registration, EPA certification, and California hazmat licensing. This work falls outside the core definition of packaging compactors and suggests a coding mismatch in the state or local procurement office's tagging system.

The source provides no evidence of active demand for packaging compactors among state and local issuers. Until the classification or tagging error is corrected, this code should be considered dormant for business development purposes. The Orange County Transportation Authority's opportunity—a $55,000 time-and-expense contract with quarterly renewal potential—is not representative of compactor procurement and does not establish geographic or issuing-body concentration under the accurate scope of the code.
