UNSPSC 24111508: Tent bag

UNSPSC 24111508 Tent bag (Commodity) is a narrow category showing minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with the code's nominal scope. The source records show two substantive opportunities, both from the City of Richardson, Texas, soliciting polyethylene recycle and trash bags rather than tent bags. The first opportunity (Solicitation 70526, posted May 21, 2026, due June 16, 2026) requests an annual requirements contract for blue recycling bags (30" × 37" and 27" × 52"), black trash bags (30" × 37"), and clear trash bags (44" × 47") in quantities ranging from 100 to 35,000 rolls or boxes annually, with closures offered in wire ties, flaps that tie, or drawstrings. The second (Solicitation 4426, posted March 31, 2026, due April 28, 2026) covers identical bag types with an estimated annual expenditure of approximately $300,000. Both solicit bags meeting ASTM standards for film thickness (1.3–2.0 mils), dart impact strength, slip coefficient, and drop resistance, with preference for post-consumer recycled content of 10–20 percent. Both require bidders to demonstrate a minimum of five years' experience supplying similar bags to municipalities and to provide three references from customers served within the past three years. Neither opportunity identifies set-asides, though bidders must disclose M/WBE certification status for informational purposes.

The code shows activity concentrated in Texas, specifically the City of Richardson, with no other issuing bodies represented in recent opportunities. The City of Richardson issued solicitations in both March and June 2026, indicating a repeat buyer pattern under this category code. The third record (Solicitation 26OTHER73, July 14, 2026) is a notice of relocation for the Williamson County Purchasing Department and does not constitute a procurement opportunity. The mismatch between the code's stated scope (tent bags) and the actual procurement activity (waste-management bags) reflects a tagging misalignment in the state and local source system rather than active tent-bag procurement. State and local governments do not currently appear to be soliciting tent bags under this code.
