UNSPSC 24112901: Wooden crate

Rigid wooden container of considerable size; covered or open top

UNSPSC 24112901 Wooden crate is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local procurement activity under this designation shows minimal relevance to the code's nominal scope. The posted opportunities cluster almost entirely around shipping containers and freight equipment—20-foot and 40-foot Conex containers, high-cube storage containers, container offices, and container roof shelters—rather than wooden crates. Two records (the Anatomage Table solicitations from Georgia) are unrelated to containers or packaging altogether and appear to be miscoded. The container-focused activity dominates across multiple issuing bodies and geographies, suggesting either systematic miscoding of container procurements under this Commodity, or limited recent demand for wooden crates at the state and local level.

Jurisdictions soliciting container equipment include the City of Philadelphia (three separate micro-purchase quotations for storage and freight containers totaling up to $45,000 each), San Mateo County Parks Department in California (Informal RFP for three 20-foot containers with local-business preference, proposals due July 2, 2026), the State of Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts (IFB for multiple container configurations in 10-, 20-, and 40-foot variants, bids due July 23, 2026), Texas Department of Transportation Yoakum District (Conex storage containers, bids due July 20, 2026), Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida (ITB for two-year container supply to fire stations with estimated value $146,685.00, bids due May 15, 2026), the City of Tampa Parks & Recreation Department (RFQ for custom shipping container roof shelter, April 15, 2026), the City of Fort Worth Water Department (RFQt for 40-foot shipping container office, April 20, 2026), and the City of Dallas Street Services (IFS for freight and cargo containers, March 24, 2026). Activity concentrates in Texas, California, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, with Texas and California showing the highest frequency. The code as currently assigned does not align with the goods state and local governments are actually purchasing under it.
