UNSPSC 24102400: Waste material handling and recycling systems

Recycling and waste material handling systems

UNSPSC 24102400 Waste material handling and recycling systems (Class) encompasses on-call compactor maintenance and repair, composting equipment servicing, solid waste and recycling collection across residential and municipal accounts, biosolids beneficial reuse, scrap tire removal and disposal, recyclables hauling to processing facilities, and trash bag procurement—representing the full spectrum of operational waste system services that state and local governments use to manage daily waste flows, process recovered materials, and maintain equipment reliability. The code draws solicitations from county public works departments, municipal environmental services, school districts, special waste authorities, and regional waste management entities across varied geographies, with no dominant repeat buyer emerging from recent activity.

Recent solicitations span the geographic breadth of state and local procurement: San Mateo County in California issued an RFP in May 2026 for on-call compactor maintenance and repair across four units (due May 20, 2026, now closed); Hillsborough County in Florida announced a sole-source award to Powerscreen of Florida for five-year maintenance of composting equipment at the SE Landfill in Tampa (challenge deadline June 25, 2026); the City of West Jordan, Utah solicited comprehensive residential solid waste collection and recycling services for approximately 27,500 accounts with a preproposal meeting on June 9, 2026 and proposals due July 9, 2026; the Maryland Environmental Service posted an RFP for collection and processing of used motor oil and antifreeze statewide (proposals due May 21, 2026); and the Town of Trumbull, Connecticut and its Board of Education issued an ITB for municipal solid waste and recycling at school and municipal buildings (bids due June 11, 2026). Additional activity includes the City of Richardson, Texas requesting proposals for recycle and trash bags under an annual requirements contract (due June 16, 2026), the Missouri Department of Natural Resources issuing an RFQ for scrap tire removal and disposal services in Willow Springs (due June 4, 2026), the City of Frisco, Texas soliciting commercial recycling collection and processing services (due May 14, 2026), and Gwinnett County, Georgia requesting bids for trash removal, disposal, and recovered materials hauling across four geographic districts (due April 29, 2026). The code shows consistent activity across Northeast (Connecticut, Maryland), Southeast (Georgia, Florida), Midwest (Ohio, Wisconsin, Michigan), and Southwest (Texas, Arizona, Utah) jurisdictions, indicating broad geographic distribution without regional concentration.
